The amendment changed the date of the accident stated in the notice from March 2 to March 3:

There is no indication that the date originally set forth in the notice of claim as the accident date, March 2, 2012, was set forth in bad faith, the Transit Authority did not demonstrate any actual prejudice as a result of the discrepancy, and the record discloses no basis to presume the existence of prejudice … . Bowers v City of New York, 2017 NY Slip Op 01174, 2nd Dept 2-15-17
