DEFENDANTS’ MOTION TO DISMISS CLAIMS NOT INCLUDED IN THE NOTICE OF CLAIM PROPERLY GRANTED; MOTION TO AMEND THE NOTICE OF CLAIM AND MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE A LATE NOTICE PROPERLY DENIED; JUDGE SHOULD NOT HAVE, SUA SPONTE, DISMISSED THE CLAIM FOR LOSS OF SERVICES BECAUSE THAT RELIEF WAS NOT REQUESTED (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department determined defendants’ motion to dismiss claims that were not in the notice of claim was properly granted, and plaintiffs’ motions to amend the notice of claim and for leave to file a late notice of claim were properly denied. The Second Department noted that the loss of services claim should not have been dismissed (sua sponte) because that relief was not requested. The action alleged negligent supervision by the school. Plaintiff student was allegedly pushed into a wall during gym class by another student who had been bullying her for some time:

The plaintiffs’ new claims of other purported bullying incidents and Dupper’s [plaintiff-student’s father’s] claim that he suffered stress, anxiety, and depression as a result of the … incident constitute new theories of liability which were not included in the notice of claim and should be dismissed … . …

The plaintiffs’ proposed amendments to the notice of claim add substantive new facts and new theories of liability not set forth in the original notice of claim and which are not permitted as late filed amendments to a notice of claim under General Municipal Law § 50-e(6) … . …

… [T]he plaintiffs’ failure to include a proposed notice of claim with their cross motion alone was a sufficient basis for denying that branch of the cross motion … . C.D. v Goshen Cent. Sch. Dist., 2020 NY Slip Op 04916, Second Dept 9-16-20
