Matter of Swarts v. Mahoney

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department
Sep 26, 1986
123 A.D.2d 520 (N.Y. App. Div. 1986)

Opinion

September 26, 1986

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Erie County, Flaherty, J.

Present — Callahan, J.P., Green, Pine, Balio and Lawton, JJ. (Order entered Aug. 21, 1986.)


Order unanimously affirmed without costs. Memorandum: Special Term properly concluded that petitioner had no standing as an aggrieved candidate. The challenge herein was based upon alleged infirmities relating to the internal affairs of a political party, rather than a failure to comply with the legislative mandates of the Election Law (see, Matter of Liepshutz v Palmateer, 112 A.D.2d 1098, affd 65 N.Y.2d 963). We have considered the other issue raised and find it to be without merit.
