268 App. Div. 979 (N.Y. App. Div. 1944)

Opinion

December 18, 1944.

Appeal from Supreme Court, New York County.


Order appealed from modified by eliminating (1) the last decretal paragraph; (2) the words "and it is further" immediately preceding said paragraph; and (3) the provision in the sixth decretal paragraph reading "and that he be continued on sick leave pending determination at trial of the issues herein remaining unsettled"; and as so modified affirmed, without costs.


The action of the Special Term should have been limited to directing a new examination of the respondent Mack by a special medical board in lieu of the special board in whose recommendations the physician selected by the respondent Mack is shown to have joined under a misapprehension concerning the evidence on which he was authorized to act. Only such previous determinations as are inconsistent with the finding of such new board should be vacated and the respondent Mack reinstated to his former position pending further action by the Board of Trustees on the findings of such new board. The order appealed from should be modified accordingly.

Martin, P.J., Townley, Glennon and Dore, JJ., concur in decision; Untermyer, J., dissents in part in memorandum.
