Matter of Chiavaro v. New York City Board

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Feb 15, 1996
224 A.D.2d 562 (N.Y. App. Div. 1996)

Opinion

February 15, 1996

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Garry, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

The court properly dismissed the proceeding on the ground that the appellant did not have standing to bring it (see, Matter of Sgambati v. New York City Bd. of Elections, 224 A.D.2d 564 [decided herewith]). In addition, the court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in denying a motion to amend the petition to allege that the appellant has standing as an "aggrieved candidate" (see, Felix v. Lettre, 204 A.D.2d 679).

In light of our determination, we need not reach the parties' remaining contentions. Bracken, J.P., Sullivan, Santucci, Hart and Krausman, JJ., concur.
