COURT SHOULD NOT HAVE DISMISSED CAUSES OF ACTION FOR FAILURE TO NAME NECESSARY PARTIES, BECAUSE THE PARTIES WERE SUBJECT TO THE COURT’S JURISDICTION, THE COURT SHOULD HAVE ORDERED THE PARTIES JOINED (THIRD DEPT).

The Third Department determined Supreme Court should not have dismissed causes of action for failure to name necessary parties, but rather should have ordered the parties joined:

​

Supreme Court erred, however, by determining that petitioners’ failure to name Negron, Zell, Lowe, Robertson and Burkert as necessary parties required dismissal of the first three causes of action in the petition/complaint … . CPLR 1001 (b) provides that where a party or parties who should be joined have “not been made a party and [are] subject to the jurisdiction of the court, the court shall order [them] summoned” … . Because Negron, Zell, Lowe, Robertson and Burkert are necessary parties and are subject to Supreme Court’s jurisdiction insofar as they were employees of the City of Kingston Police Department at the time of commencement of this proceeding, the court should have ordered them joined… . Accordingly, we find that this matter must be remitted to Supreme Court to order Negron, Zell, Lowe, Robertson and Burkert to be joined as necessary parties … . Matter of Farrell v City of Kingston, 2017 NY Slip Op 09214, Third Dept 12-28-17
