Moorman v. Huntington Hospital

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Apr 20, 2000
271 A.D.2d 585 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000)

Opinion

Submitted March 3, 2000.

April 20, 2000.

In an action, inter alia, to recover damages for tortious interference with business relationships, the plaintiff appeals from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Dunn, J.), dated January 13, 1999, as granted the defendants' motion to dismiss the complaint and denied his cross motion for leave to amend the complaint.

Nathan L. Dembin Associates, P.C., New York, N.Y. (Ariella Colman of counsel), for appellant.

McHenry, Horan, Lapping Patrozzo, P.C., Syosset, N.Y. (Judith Pilatsky of counsel), for respondents.

DANIEL W. JOY, J.P., WILLIAM C. THOMPSON, GABRIEL M. KRAUSMAN, GLORIA GOLDSTEIN, JJ.


DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

The plaintiff has failed to state a cause of action different from those previously asserted in a prior action between the parties (see, Moorman v. Huntington Hosp., 254 A.D.2d 465 ). The plaintiff's allegations with respect to a new cause of action to recover damages for tortious interference with prospective economic advantage are insufficient to state a cause of action (see,Mandelblatt v. Devon Stores, Inc., 132 A.D.2d 162 ).
