New York Court of Appeals

Myrna P. Levine v. Terry J. Levine

May 18, 198256 N.Y.2d 42

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals reversed the Appellate Division and reinstated the trial court's judgment, holding that joint representation by a single attorney does not, by itself, constitute overreaching requiring rescission of a separation agreement and that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in refusing to exclude the attorney from the courtroom.
