MATTER OF PAYTON v. New York City Transit Auth.

New York Court of Appeals
MATTER OF PAYTON v. New York City Transit Auth., 8 N.Y.2d 737 (N.Y. 1960)
167 N.E.2d 649; 201 N.Y.S.2d 108; 1960 N.Y. LEXIS 1334

MATTER OF PAYTON v. New York City Transit Auth.

Opinion

Order affirmed, without costs. The determination by the New York City Transit Authority is supported by substantial evidence. Insofar as the disciplinary action taken is claimed to have been excessive, power to review is conferred upon appellate courts by subdivision 5-a of section 1296 of the Civil Practice Act. We hold, however, that the discretion of the Authority was not abused in imposing the measure of discipline involved. No opinion.

Concur: Chief Judge Desmond and Judges Dye, Fuld, Froessel, Van Voorhis, Burke and Foster.
