Cruz v. Kodis

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Jul 3, 1997
241 A.D.2d 338 (N.Y. App. Div. 1997)

Opinion

July 3, 1997

Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Barbara Kapnick, J.).


This transitory action involving an accident that occurred in Suffolk County, where all of he witnesses either reside or work, should be transferred to Suffolk County. The happenstance that one of the corporate defendants designated New York County as its "principal location" with the Secretary of State, standing alone, is an insufficient basis for this litigation to continue in New York County.

Concur — Murphy, P. J., Wallach, Rubin, Tom and Andrias, JJ.
