Clase v. New York City Health & Hospitals Corp.
Opinion of the Court
Plaintiffs reliance upon the medical records to show that defendants “acquired actual knowledge of the essential facts constituting the claim within [90 days from when the claim accrued] or within a reasonable time thereafter” is unavailing (General Municipal Law § 50-e [5]). The records do not, on their face, give any indication of the infant’s brain injuries nor malpractice on defendants’ part causing the same (see Williams v Nassau County Med. Ctr., 6 NY3d 531, 537 [2006]; Perez v New York City Health & Hosps. Corp., 81 AD3d 448 [2011]).
We have considered plaintiffs remaining contentions and find them unavailing. Concur — Mazzarelli, J.P, Andrias, DeGrasse and Richter, Abdus-Salaam JJ.
