PETITIONER WAS REQUIRED TO FILE A NOTICE OF CLAIM PURSUANT TO CPLR 9802 IN AN ACTION SEEKING A DECLARATORY JUDGMENT THAT A LOCAL LAW WAS INVALID, DECLARATORY JUDGMENT CAUSE OF ACTION SHOULD HAVE BEEN DISMISSED (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined petitioner’s (BT Holdings’) cause of action for a declaratory judgment declaring a local law invalid should have been dismissed because petitioner did not file a notice of claim as required by CPLR 9802:

Contrary to BT Holdings’ contention, the notice of claim requirements of CPLR 9802 apply to the causes of action for declaratory relief … . Matter of BT Holdings, LLC v Village of Chester, 2018 NY Slip Op 04544, Second Dept 6-20-18
