Monika Puranik v. The Children’s Place Services Company, LLC
Trial Court Opinion
USDC SDNY UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DOCUMENT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK ELECTRONICALLY FILED MONIKA PURANIK, DOC #; —_________ DATE FILED: 9/2/2025 Plaintiff, -against- 24 Civ. 4441 (AT) (VF) THE CHILDREN’S PLACE SERVICES ORDER ADOPTING COMPANY, LLC, REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION Defendant. ANALISA TORRES, District Judge: Plaintiff, Monika Puranik, brings this action against Defendant, The Children’s Place Services Company, LLC, alleging, inter alia, discriminatory conduct in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act,
42 U.S.C. § 12101et seq.; the New York State Human Rights Law,
N.Y. Exec. Law § 290et seq.; and the New York City Human Rights Law,
N.Y. Admin. Code § 8-101et seg. See generally ECF No. 25. By order dated October 18, 2024, the Court referred Defendant’s motion to dismiss to the Honorable Valerie Figueredo. ECF No. 36. After careful consideration, Judge Figueredo issued a report (the “R&R”) recommending that the Court grant in part and deny in part Defendant’s motion to dismiss, and that the Court deny Defendant’s motion to transfer venue. See generally R&R, ECF No. 50. Although the R&R notified the parties of their right to object to the R&R, and the Court extended the time to object, no objections were filed and the time to do so has now passed. See R&R at 41; ECF No. 53; Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2). Because no objection was made, the Court reviews the R&R for clear error. Santiago v. Colvin, No. 12 Civ. 7052,
2014 WL 1092967, at *1 (S.D.N.Y. Mar. 17, 2014); Urena v. New York,
160 F. Supp. 2d 606, 609-10(S.D.N.Y. 2001). The Court finds no clear error in Judge Figueredo’s thorough and well-reasoned R&R. Accordingly, the Court ADOPTS the R&R in its entirety. Defendant’s motion to dismiss, ECF No. 32, is GRANTED IN PART and DENIED IN PART. See generally R&R. Defendant’s motion to transfer venue, see ECF No. 33, is DENIED without prejudice. See R&R at 38-41. By September 30, 2025, Plaintiff shall file any proposed second amended complaint, which must be accompanied by (1) a redline or a description of the changes from the first amended complaint to the proposed second amended complaint, and (2) a memorandum of law explaining how the amendments address the deficiencies described in the R&R. The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to terminate the motion at ECF No. 32. SO ORDERED. Dated: September 2, 2025 New York, New York ——ANALISA TORRES United States District Judge
