THE TOLLING PROVISION OF CPLR 205 APPLIES TO AN ARTICLE 78 PROCEEDING SEEKING REVIEW OF AN ADMINISTRATIVE RULING, THE PETITION, WHICH WAS MARKED OFF THE CALENDAR BUT WAS NOT DISMISSED ON THE MERITS, CAN BE RE-FILED WITHIN SIX MONTHS OF THE DISMISSAL (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department determined the tolling provision in CPLR 205 which allows an action which was dismissed (but not on the merits) to be started again within six months applies to Article 78 actions seeking review of an administrative ruling, here a ruling by the NYS Liquor Authority:

As the petitioner correctly contends, CPLR 205(a) applies not only to actions but also to special proceedings under CPLR article 78 … . The toll of CPLR 205(a) would not apply, however, if the prior proceeding was dismissed on the merits; thus, the court must determine whether the order dismissing the prior proceeding is entitled to res judicata effect … .

Here, the prior proceeding was dismissed after being marked off the calendar. Contrary to the Authority’s contention, “[a] dismissal of an action by being marked off the Trial Calendar is not a dismissal on the merits,” and “[a] new action on the same theory is therefore not barred by the doctrine of res judicata”… . Moreover, there is nothing in the order denying the petitioner’s motion to restore the prior proceeding to the calendar which suggests that the prior proceeding was dismissed with prejudice … . Matter of Lindenwood Cut Rate Liquors, Ltd. v New York State Liq. Auth., 2018 NY Slip Op 03680, Second Dept 5-23-18
