Opinion
April 3, 1995
Appeal from the Court of Claims (Corbett, J.).
Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.
The Court of Claims correctly determined that the notice of intention to file a claim was defective because it failed to state the nature of the claim alleged, as required by Court of Claims Act § 11 (b). Since the notice of intention to file a claim was defective, the claimant could not properly avail himself of the two-year period in which to file a claim as provided by Court of Claims Act § 10 (3) (see, DeFilippis v State of New York, 157 A.D.2d 826; cf., Conley v State of New York, 123 A.D.2d 598). Rosenblatt, J.P., Miller, Thompson and Santucci, JJ., concur.
