Broder v. City of New York

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Feb 4, 1988
137 A.D.2d 415 (N.Y. App. Div. 1988)

Opinion

February 4, 1988

Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Bruce McM. Wright, J.).


We find that plaintiffs' failure to provide additional particulars to defendants respecting liability was not willful. Since plaintiffs did comply, albeit not in a timely fashion, with the prior order of the Supreme Court, in serving a bill of particulars dated May 16, 1986, we feel that the sanction of preclusion imposed by the IAS court was too severe, and modify accordingly.

Concur — Kupferman, J.P., Sullivan, Ross, Asch and Ellerin, JJ.
