CitationPremo v. Cornell, 449 N.Y.S.2d 195, 55 N.Y.2d 962 (N.Y. 1982)
Decision Date16 February 1982
Parties, 434 N.E.2d 264 Chloe PREMO, Appellant, v. Donald CORNELL et al., Respondents.

On review of submissions pursuant to Rule 500.2(b), order affirmed, with costs. It cannot be said, as a matter of law, that the Appellate Division, 83 A.D.2d 981, 442 N.Y.S.2d 831, abused its discretion in granting defendants' motion to dismiss the action pursuant to CPLR 3012 (subd. ). Indeed, as we held in Barasch v. Micucci, 49 N.Y.2d 594, 600-601, 427 N.Y.S.2d 732, 404 N.E.2d 1275, it would have been an abuse of discretion to have failed to dismiss.

COOKE, C. J., and JASEN, GABRIELLI, JONES, WACHTLER, FUCHSBERG and MEYER, JJ., concur.
