Shepis v. 3 Cottage Place Associates

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Oct 4, 1999
265 A.D.2d 317 (N.Y. App. Div. 1999)

Opinion

Argued September 27, 1999

October 4, 1999

In an action to recover on promissory notes, the defendants appeal from stated portions of an order of the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Donovan, J.).


ORDERED that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements.

While the appellants correctly state that New York does not recognize civil conspiracy as an independent cause of action ( see, Litras v. Litras, 254 A.D.2d 395; Island Condo Mgt. Corp. v. Katan Gardens Condominium, 250 A.D.2d 816), the third and fourth causes of action set forth sufficient facts which make out independent actionable torts ( cf., Arcy Paint Co. v. Resnick, 134 A.D.2d 392).

The appellants' remaining contention is without merit.

O'BRIEN, J.P., SANTUCCI, THOMPSON, and ALTMAN, JJ., concur.
