May v. Hoguet
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided January 13, 1939
256 A.D. 825; 9 N.Y.S.2d 52; 1939 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 5032
May v. Hoguet

Opinion of the Court

Order granting motion to dismiss for failure to serve a complaint modified by striking therefrom the words “ unless the ease is noticed for trial for the December, 1938, Term,” and, as so modified, affirmed, without costs. In view of the existence of an order denying a motion for leave to serve a complaint and the failure of the respondent to show that the action would be diligently prosecuted, we are of opinion that the complaint should have been dismissed unconditionally. Lazansky, P. J., Hagarty, Davis, Adel and Taylor, JJ., concur.
