Holt v. Board of Education

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Mar 10, 1980
74 A.D.2d 839 (N.Y. App. Div. 1980)

Opinion

March 10, 1980


In two proceedings pursuant to CPLR article 78, inter alia, to compel the respondents to remove certain material from petitioner's personnel file, the petitioner appeals from two judgments (one in each proceeding) of the Supreme Court, Dutchess County, both dated December 11, 1978, each of which dismissed the petition. Judgments affirmed, with separate bills of $50 costs and disbursements. The letters sent to petitioner fell within the bounds of permissible administrative evaluation. Petitioner failed to make out a claim of stigmatization, alleging neither publication nor falsehood (see Gentile v. Wallen, 562 F.2d 193). Mollen, P.J., Damiani, Gulotta and Cohalan, JJ., concur.
