Long Beach Housing Authority v. New York State Division of Human Rights
Citations: 255 A.D.2d 326; 679 N.Y.S.2d 327; 1998 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 11563
Court: Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York; November 1, 1998; New York; State Appellate Court
In a case involving Executive Law § 298 and CPLR article 78, the New York State Division of Human Rights dismissed Marcella Hargrave's complaint against the Long Beach Housing Authority for reasons of administrative convenience. The petitioner, Long Beach Housing Authority, appealed a Supreme Court, Nassau County judgment dated August 18, 1997, which denied the petition and upheld the dismissal. The appellate court affirmed the lower court's judgment, determining that the Division of Human Rights' decision was not arbitrary. Citing precedents, the court supported the dismissal's justification and found the appellant's additional arguments to be without merit. The ruling was concurred by Justices Rosenblatt, Miller, Goldstein, and McGinity. The petitioner was ordered to pay one bill of costs.
