Mascaro v. State

New York Court of Appeals February 10, 1976

Mascaro v. State, 38 N.Y.2d 870 (N.Y. 1976)

346 N.E.2d 543; 382 N.Y.S.2d 742; 1976 N.Y. LEXIS 2318

Breitel and Judges Jasen, Gabrielli, Jones, Wachtler, Fuchsberg and Cooke Concur

Opinion

Memorandum. There was insufficient proof in this case on which to posit a finding that there was a duty on the part of the State to maintain the curb in issue here. Accordingly, we affirm the order of the Appellate Division. Our disposition makes it unnecessary to decide between the Court of Claims’ and the Appellate Division’s findings of fact on the issues of negligence and notice.

Chief Judge Breitel and Judges Jasen, Gabrielli, Jones, Wachtler, Fuchsberg and Cooke concur.

Order affirmed, with costs, in a memorandum.
