Cruey v. Cruey

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Mar 8, 1990
159 A.D.2d 241 (N.Y. App. Div. 1990)

Opinion

March 8, 1990

Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Kristin Booth Glen, J.).


In this action for divorce and the setting aside of a prenuptial agreement, plaintiff has not established her right to financial disclosure beyond the circumstances existing at the time of the execution of the agreement. Although plaintiff urges that the agreement was the product of fraud, overreaching and coercion, and that the terms were unfair when made and are unconscionable now, such conclusory allegations are insufficient to warrant the broad financial discovery that plaintiff seeks. (Oberstein v Oberstein, 93 A.D.2d 374.) The controlling principle continues to be that unless and until the invalidity of the agreement is established, broad financial disclosure should be denied. (McLean v Balkoski, 125 A.D.2d 234, 235.)

Concur — Murphy, P.J., Sullivan, Ross, Kassal and Smith, JJ.
