DATE OF WOMAN’S DISAPPEARANCE, NOT THE STATUTORY DEFAULT DATE FIVE YEARS LATER, WAS THE CORRECT DATE OF DEATH (FIRST DEPT).

The First Department, reversing Surrogate’s Court, determined the date of the disappearance of Kathleen (January 31, 1982) , not the statutory default date (January 31, 1987) was the date of the Kathleen’s death:

Petitioner submitted evidence that Kathleen disappeared without explanation, and without her car and personal effects, on January 31, 1982. Kathleen has not been seen or heard from since that date. Kathleen’s sisters submit affidavits in which they recite that they were close with her, and communicated with her several times a month, prior to her disappearance. They state that it is inconceivable that Kathleen would abruptly cease all communication with family and friends. Kathleen was also a medical student at Mt. Sinai Medical School at the time of her disappearance. She was two months away from graduation. According to her family it was Kathleen’s dream to become a doctor and it would be incomprehensible that she would walk away from her studies when she was so close to her goal. Respondent … has not submitted an affidavit refuting or explaining this evidence.

We find that this evidence is sufficient to establish a “high[] probab[ility]” that Kathleen died on the date of her disappearance … . Matter of McCormack, 2018 NY Slip Op 03733, First Dept 5-24-18
