14 Misc. 2d 493

Rosenberg v. State

New York Court of Claims

Decided April 18, 1958

New York Court of Claims · decided 1958-04-18

Relies on Craver v. State

Decided 1958-04-18

Russell G-. Hunt, J.

¶1This is an application by the State to dismiss the claim herein upon the ground that there was a failure to timely file the claim and upon the further ground that the same does not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action against the State.

¶2*494It appears that the deceased died on August 4, 1957 as the result of an automobile accident occurring on that date. It is alleged that the driver of the car which caused the deceased’s death was without liability insurance coverage upon the automobile and should not have been permitted by the State to retain her operator’s license. This, it is alleged, constituted, negligence on the part of the State.

¶3The claim does not state a cause of action (Craver v. State of New York, 204 Misc. 214).

¶4It is imperfectly stated that the executrix herein was appointed on August 22, 1957, and, it clearly appears that the claim was not filed until January 3, 1958, more than 90 days after the appointment of the executrix (Court of Claims Act, § 10, subd. 2). Claimant’s counsel, however, does not contend otherwise.

¶5Motion granted. Submit order.
