New York Court of Appeals

In the Matter of Castaways Motel v. C. V. R. Schuyler, as Commissioner of General Services of the State of New York

February 27, 196924 N.Y.2d 120

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals reversed the Appellate Division, reinstating Castaways Motel’s petition to compel issuance of a land grant. It held that the Power Authority was not a necessary party, that the October 20, 1966 letter did not constitute a final and binding determination under CPLR 217, and that the proceeding was timely.
