New York Court of Appeals
In the Matter of the Dental Society of the State of New York v. Hugh Carey, as Governor of the State of New York
March 27, 198461 N.Y.2d 330
Summary
The Court affirmed the Appellate Division, holding that the Dental Society of the State of New York has standing to sue on behalf of its members and that the challenge to the Medicaid dental fee schedule is justiciable without requiring the court to set rates or allocate the State budget; a dissent argued the majority improperly inferred standing and would reverse the decision.
