Brownshield v. State

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jun 9, 1980
76 A.D.2d 849 (N.Y. App. Div. 1980)

Opinion

June 9, 1980


In a claim against the State of New York to recover damages for wrongful death and conscious pain and suffering arising out of the alleged murder of the claimant's son by a parolee in Westchester County, the State appeals from so much of an order of the Court of Claims, entered May 9, 1979, as denied its motion for dismissal of, and/or summary judgment on, the second and third causes of action asserted in the claim. Order reversed insofar as appealed from, on the law, without costs or disbursements, and the State is granted summary judgment dismissing the second and third causes of action. The claim does not set forth factual allegations adequate to support the charge of negligence on the part of the State. (See Welch v. State of New York, 74 A.D.2d 661; cf. Williams v. State of New York, 308 N.Y. 548; Taylor v. State of New York, 36 A.D.2d 878.) Mollen, P.J., Hopkins, Titone and Mangano, JJ., concur.
