Opinion
May 10, 1994
Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County [Beverly Cohen, J.].
Substantial evidence supports respondent's determination that the reasons appellant gave for terminating the complainant's employment were pretexts for sex discrimination (see, McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Green, 411 U.S. 792; 300 Gramatan Ave. Assocs. v State Div. of Human Rights, 45 N.Y.2d 176, 179-182, 183).
We find the award for mental anguish excessive to the extent indicated.
Concur — Murphy, P.J., Carro, Asch, Nardelli and Williams, JJ.
