285 A.D.2d 416 (N.Y. App. Div. 2001)

Opinion

July 26, 2001.

Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Phyllis Gangel-Jacob, J.), entered June 29, 1999, which, to the extent appealed from, granted respondents' motion to dismiss the complaint, unanimously affirmed, without costs.

Steven Cramer, for plaintiff-appellant.

Charles R. Strugatz, for defendants-respondents.

Before: Sullivan, P.J., Nardelli, Ellerin, Lerner, Friedman, JJ.


Plaintiff's causes of action for negligence and private nuisance must be dismissed because it may not recover damages for negligently caused financial harm without accompanying physical injury or for private nuisance absent intentional acts on defendants' part (532 Madison Ave. Gourmet Foods v. Finlandia Center, 96 N.Y.2d 280, 291-292 June 7, 2001, 2001 N.Y. LEXIS 1413 at *14). The cause of action for public nuisance must be dismissed because plaintiff failed to plead that its damages were different from those sustained by the general public (id. at *15-16).
