Cases
Matter of Vaccari, 2019 N.Y. App. LEXIS 4029, 2019 NY Slip Op 04034, 2019 WL 2218688 (1st Dept., May 23, 2019).
We represented a closed corporation and the majority shareholder in a judicial dissolution proceeding brought by the minority shareholders. We were successful in securing the dismissal of the matter by moving simultaneously: (1) to dismiss the petition concurrently with the filing of the answer; and (2) for summary judgment in our clients’ favor. The lower court (Bransten, J.) granted the motions. The lower court ruled that a motion to dismiss a complaint under CPRL § 3211(a)(7) for failure to state a cause of action may be made concurrently with the filing the answer. Pursuant to that prong of the motion, several of the claims, including the claim seeking judicial dissolution, were dismissed as a matter of law. Since an answer had been filed, and we agreed to expedite discovery, the lower court considered the summary judgment motion, and granted summary judgment dismissing the claims that had survived the motion to dismiss. The First Department affirmed. Of particular note, the First Department held that since petitioners had failed to oppose our clients’ statement of uncontroverted facts (which statement must be filed under the local rules when seeking summary judgment), the lower court correctly credited the allegations of fact contained in the statement. Upon crediting those allegations, the Second Department concluded that the lower court had properly found that petitioners had failed to raise genuine issues of material fact.
