Jamaica Buses, Inc. v. Connor

CourtNew York Court of Appeals Court of Appeals
CitationJamaica Buses, Inc. v. Connor, 437 N.Y.S.2d 80, 52 N.Y.2d 868 (N.Y. 1981)
Decision Date15 January 1981
Parties, 418 N.E.2d 673 JAMAICA BUSES, INC., Appellant, v. Frank CONNOR and Connor Trucking, Inc., Respondents, et al., Defendants.

On summary consideration, order affirmed, with costs. It cannot be said, as a matter of law, that the Appellate Division, 78 A.D.2d 540, 432 N.Y.S.2d 201, abused its discretion in dismissing the complaint pursuant to CPLR 3012 (subd. (b)). Indeed, as we held in Barash v. Micucci, 49 N.Y.2d 594, 600-601, 427 N.Y.S.2d 732, 404 N.E.2d 1275, it would have constituted an abuse of discretion to have failed to dismiss.

All concur.
