Valerio v. Staten Island Hospital

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Oct 16, 1995
220 A.D.2d 580 (N.Y. App. Div. 1995)

Opinion

October 16, 1995

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Spodek, J.).


Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

The record shows that the plaintiff did not assert a claim to recover damages for emotional or psychological injuries. Under the circumstances, the court properly denied the appellant's motion to compel disclosure of the plaintiff's psychological, psychiatric, or counseling records ( see, e.g., Zimmer v Cathedral School of St. Mary St. Paul, 204 A.D.2d 538, 539; Sternberger v. Offen, 138 A.D.2d 480).

The appellant's remaining contentions lack merit. Mangano, P.J., Miller, Santucci and Hart, JJ., concur.
