Matter of Amodei v. New York State Chiropractic Ass'n

Court of Appeals of the State of New York
Mar 26, 1991
571 N.E.2d 70 (N.Y. 1991)

Opinion

Argued February 6, 1991

Decided March 26, 1991

Appeal from the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the First Judicial Department, John A.K. Bradley, J.

Howard S. Davis and Barry M. Hoffman for appellant.

Barry G. Saretsky and Leah C. Greenman for respondent.


MEMORANDUM.

The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed, with costs.

Petitioner's contention that the New York State Chiropractic Association failed to administer its rules fairly when it suspended his membership for a period of two years is meritless. In imposing that sanction, the association, despite petitioner's assertions to the contrary, complied, in all material respects, with its constitution and bylaws (cf., Tedeschi v Wagner Coll., 49 N.Y.2d 652). The procedural anomalies upon which petitioner's challenge rests do not provide, under the record before us, a sufficient basis for setting aside his suspension.

Chief Judge WACHTLER and Judges SIMONS, KAYE, ALEXANDER, TITONE and HANCOCK, JR., concur; Judge BELLACOSA taking no part.

Order affirmed, with costs, in a memorandum.
