Failure to Demonstrate When Plaintiff Should Have First Become Aware of Fraudulent Conveyance Precluded Dismissal on Statute of Limitations Grounds​

The Second Department determined that causes of action alleging fraudulent conveyances pursuant to Debtor & Creditor Law 276 should not have been dismissed on statute of limitations grounds because the defendants failed to establish when plaintiff should have first become aware of the alleged fraud:

“A cause of action based upon actual fraud under Debtor and Creditor Law § 276 must be brought within six years of the date that the fraud or conveyance occurs, or within two years of the date the fraud should have been discovered, whichever is longer” …. Here, it is undisputed that the verified complaint did not allege the occurrence of any fraudulent conveyances within six years prior to the commencement of the action. However, since it is unclear when the plaintiff should have first been aware of the alleged fraud, the defendants failed to establish that the causes of action alleging actual fraud under Debtor and Creditor Law § 276 should be dismissed as time-barred ….  Felshman v Yamali, 2013 NY Slip Op 03632, 2nd Dept, 5-22-13
