Statt v. Goldstein

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department
Mar 12, 1993
191 A.D.2d 963 (N.Y. App. Div. 1993)

Opinion

March 12, 1993

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Monroe County, Calvaruso, J.

Present — Denman, P.J., Green, Balio, Doerr and Boehm, JJ.


Appeal and cross appeal unanimously dismissed without costs. Memorandum: In this action alleging social worker malpractice and negligence, defendant demanded disclosure of, inter alia, the records and notes of plaintiff's treating psychiatrist. Claiming privilege, plaintiff moved for a protective order, and defendant cross-moved to compel disclosure. Supreme Court deferred determination of the motion and cross motion pending an in camera review of the psychiatrist's records and notes. Defendant appeals and plaintiff cross-appeals. Both appeals are premature. Neither motion has been decided and, therefore, no substantial right of either party has as yet been affected (see, CPLR 5701 [a] [2] [v]; Buhler v. Sheridan, 134 A.D.2d 822).
