New York Court of Appeals

Claire S. Black v. Ralph Chittenden

December 18, 198669 N.Y.2d 665

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals modified the Appellate Division order, reinstating the plaintiff's first fraud cause of action and dismissing the statute of limitations defense, and affirmed the modified order. The Court held that the complaint sufficiently pleaded fraud under CPLR 3016(b) and that the summary judgment was improper.
