Late Notice of Claim Allowed.

The Second Department allowed plaintiff to serve a late notice of claim against the defendant School District because: (1) the School District was made aware of the facts constituting the claim within the 90-day statutory period (shown by a medical claim completed by the school principal); (2) there was a reasonable excuse for the delay (mother was unaware of the severity of the child’s injury and had relied on the School District’s prior willingness to pay for the child’s medical treatment); (3) there was no prejudice to the School District’s ability to defend the action.  In the Matter of Funkhouser v Middle Country Central School District, et al, 2011-08142, Index No. 2333/11 Second Dept. 1-9-13.
