Politis v. Pritzker

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department

249 A.D.2d 529 (N.Y. App. Div. 1998)

Opinion

April 27, 1998

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Kitzes, J.).


Ordered that the order is affirmed, with one bill of costs to the respondents appearing separately and filing separate briefs.

The plaintiffs' first, second, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, ninth, and eleventh causes of action are largely, if not entirely, predicated in one form or another on the wrongful death or injury of a stillborn fetus. However, no such causes of action as those claimed here are recognized in this State ( see, LaBello v. Albany Med. Ctr. Hosp., 85 N.Y.2d 701; Tebbutt v. Virostek, 65 N.Y.2d 931; Endresz v. Friedberg, 24 N.Y.2d 478; La Page v. Di Castanzo, 194 A.D.2d 977, cert denied 510 U.S. 1178; Scott v. Capital Area Community Health Plan, 191 A.D.2d 772).

Bracken, J.P., Thompson, Pizzuto and Florio, JJ., concur.
