Gomez v. New York City Housing Authority

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
May 3, 1990
161 A.D.2d 190 (N.Y. App. Div. 1990)

Opinion

May 3, 1990

Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Myriam Altman, J.).


Gomez v. Millett is a personal injury action arising out of an automobile accident in which the injuries allegedly sustained by plaintiff Gomez include a herniated disk. Gomez v. New York City Hous. Auth. arises out of an unrelated slip-and-fall injury. Although Ms. Gomez did not initially claim that a herniated disk suffered in this latter action was an aggravation of a similar injury suffered in the automobile accident, she did indicate aggravation of other injuries, and her counsel later indicated his intention to amend the plaintiff's bill of particulars to allege aggravation of the herniated disk. The IAS court properly relied on this representation in finding that the claim of aggravation presents a particularly appropriate situation for joint trial (see, Boyman v. Bryant, 133 A.D.2d 802).
