Matter of Licari v. N.Y. City Housing Auth

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Mar 19, 1992
181 A.D.2d 558 (N.Y. App. Div. 1992)

Opinion

March 19, 1992

Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Stephen Crane, J.).


There was actual notice to respondent of the facts underlying the claim by virtue of petitioners' communications with the project manager concerning the defective condition on the premises, as well as the happening of the accident. Moreover, the application for leave to serve a late notice of claim was made a scant 10 days after the expiration of the statutory deadline, rendering unlikely any prejudice resulting from delay. Moreover, respondent could hardly have been prejudiced by any inability to investigate where its own employee had repaired the condition within the statutory period for serving a notice of claim.

Concur — Sullivan, J.P., Wallach, Asch, Kassal and Rubin, JJ.
