Stamp v. Schenk

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department
Dec 30, 1999
267 A.D.2d 1017 (N.Y. App. Div. 1999)

Opinion

December 30, 1999

Appeal from Order of Supreme Court, Wyoming County, Dillon, J. — Dismiss Pleading.

Order unanimously affirmed without costs.

PRESENT: PINE, J. P., WISNER, HURLBUTT AND BALIO, JJ.


Memorandum:

Supreme Court properly dismissed the third cause of action as barred by the Statute of Limitations. Taking the allegations of the complaint as true and resolving all inferences that reasonably flow therefrom in favor of plaintiff ( see, Cron v. Hargro Fabrics, 91 N.Y.2d 362, 366), we conclude that the third cause of action accrued no later than May 1, 1992 ( see, Ely-Cruikshank Co. v. Bank of Montreal, 81 N.Y.2d 399, 402). Plaintiff failed to submit any evidence in admissible form tending to show any other accrual date ( see, CPLR 3211[c]). Even assuming the applicability of a six-year Statute of Limitations ( see, CPLR 213), we conclude that the third cause of action is time-barred because the action was not commenced until September 1998.
