Sovik v. Shearson Lehman/American Express, Inc.

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department
Feb 27, 1987
127 A.D.2d 996 (N.Y. App. Div. 1987)

Opinion

February 27, 1987

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Onondaga County, Mordue, J.

Present — Dillon, P.J., Callahan, Denman, Pine and Lawton, JJ.


Order unanimously reversed on the law without costs and submission of controversy dismissed. Memorandum: The court erred in deciding a purported action on submitted facts pursuant to CPLR 3222 because such a submission must consist of a statement of all the facts upon which the controversy depends. The court improperly considered affidavits submitted by the parties which raised factual issues (see, Ditmars-31' St. Dev. Corp. v. Punia, 17 A.D.2d 357, 360). It is impossible to decide the case on the submission alone because it is incomplete.
