  2. Chretien v. Company

    87 N.H. 378 (N.H. 1935)   Cited 2 times
    In Chretien v. Company, 87 N.H. 378, 180 A. 254 (1935), we held that "a statute requiring that words denoting the masculine gender shall include females will not authorize us to read the word widow as including widower."

    In three jurisdictions death statutes for the benefit of the widow and next of kin are construed to include the surviving husband as next of kin but not as the statutory equivalent of the widow. Atchison c. Ry Co. v. Townsend, 71 Kan. 524; Steel v. Kurtz, 28 Oh. St. 191; Missouri c Co. v. Canada, 130 Okla. 171. Family allowances and exemptions permitted by statute to be made to the widow and children of the deceased are not construed for the benefit of a widower.

  4. Liddle Robinson v, Shoemaker

    276 A.D.2d 335 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000)   Cited 12 times

    The imposition of sanctions, then, constituted a proper exercise of discretion (see, 22 NYCRR § 130-1.1; Ross Cohen v. Kurtz Steel Corp., 237 A.D.2d 172, 172-173). THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.

    2011 N.Y. Slip Op. 33453 (N.Y. Sup. Ct. 2011)

    While the court did not ultimately agree with 1523 M's position in this action, that alone, is not a sufficient basis for the imposition of sanctions. See: Ross & Cohen v. Kurtz Steel Corp., 237 A.D.2d 172 (1st Dept 1997). Conclusion

  6. Hubshman v. 1010 Tenants Corp.

    2011 N.Y. Slip Op. 32768 (N.Y. Sup. Ct. 2011)

    Litigation can be rough and tumble, often filled with acrimony and harsh accusations which may be ill advised, but not sanctionable. Examining the complaint in the light most favorable to the plaintiff shows that this claim was nothing more than an error of professional judgment which is non-sanctionable (Ross & Cohen v. Kurtz Steel Corp., 237 A.D.2d 172 [1st Dept 1997]).

  7. Hubshman v. 1010 Tenants Corp.

    Litigation can be rough and tumble, often filled with acrimony and harsh accusations which may be ill advised, but not sanctionable.
