  • Treglia v Varano, 535852, 2023 WL  8938897, at *2 [3d Dept Dec. 28, 2023] (holding that, where parties share parenting time on an approximate 50/50 basis, the party that has the greater income is the noncustodial parent).
  • Turetsky v Shumantov, 2021-01094, 2023 WL  8792641, at *2 [2d Dept Dec. 20, 2023] (affirming denial of summary  judgmen

  • Treglia v Varano, 535852, 2023 WL  8938897, at *2 [3d Dept Dec. 28, 2023] (holding that, where parties share parenting time on an approximate 50/50 basis, the party that has the greater income is the noncustodial parent).
  • Turetsky v Shumantov, 2021-01094, 2023 WL  8792641, at *2 [2d Dept Dec. 20, 2023] (affirming denial of summary  judgment in a dental malpractice case where “plaintiff's expert opined  that the defendants deviated from accepted dental practice by, among  other things, failing to recognize that the block bone graft had failed  and advising the plaintiff to wait for the gum tissue to heal over a  period of four months”).
  • Schearer v Fitzgerald, 217 AD3d 980, 982 [2d  Dept 2023] (this Court’s first determination that the CVA does not violate the Due Process Clause of the New York and United States Constitutions). 
  • Lisiecki v R.C. Archdiocese of New York, 1219,  2023 WL 8632070, at *1 [1st Dept Dec. 14, 2023] (in a CVA case, affirming a court’s directive that the defendant produce letters from  its former employee to “Cardinal John O'Connor, were discoverable for  plaintiff's claims of negligent hiring, retention, and supervision  against the RCANY employee” because they relate “to incidents that  occurred prior to and during the time period during which plaintiff  alleges that he was a student at Cardinal Spellman High School and was  being sexually abused by RCANY's former employee”).
  • Forbes v Poly Prep Country Day School, 220 AD3d 750 [2d  Dept 2023] (in a CVA case, reiterating that CVA's claims-revival  provision did not violate Due Process Clause of the New York State Constitution, and rejecting claim that a negligent hiring claim is  duplicative of a negligence claim).
  • DeMarzo v Cuba Hill Elementary School, 220 AD3d 917 [2d Dept 2023] (in a CVA case, holding that the complaint using “Doe” as former teacher's first name sufficiently identified teacher as the intended defendant and that student exercised due diligence pre-commencement under Child Victims  Act's revival window to discover teacher's first name through online searches that included searches through internet search engines, online  yearbooks, public records, state teacher license database, and phone  book).
  • In Weiss v Tri-State Consumer Ins. Co., 98 AD3d 1107 (2d  Dep't 2016), the Second Department reversed its earlier precedent and  held that SUM insurance coverage should not be offset by payments from a  non-motor vehicle bodily injury insurance policy.
  • In Palydowycz v Palydowycz, 138 AD3d 810 (2d Dep't 2016),  the Appellate Division, Second Department, held that the husband's  medical practices hold a value, distinct from the income stream that the  medical practices generated. As a result, the wife was entitled to  maintenance based on the income stream from the practices in addition to  a share of the value of the medical practices themselves. This ruling  constituted a departure from the Second Department's earlier decisions  on this issue.
  • In Auqui v. Seven Thirty One Limited Partnership, 22 N.Y.3d  246 (2013), Ms. Hasapidis represented a worker who was injured when a  sheet of plywood fell from a 50-story- high construction site and struck  him on the head as he walked down a New York City street. On February  14, 2013, the Court of Appeals, for the first time, granted collateral  estoppel effect to Decisions of the workers' compensation board in  third-party actions regarding disability issues. The Decision  jeopardized the right to a jury trial on those issues and would have a  serious impact on the ability of injured workers to seek justice through  the court system, while also undermining the workers' compensation  system. Ms. Hasapidis requested that the Court of Appeals grant  reargument of its Decision and Order, which is rarely granted. Yet, the  Court granted reargument and, after a second round of briefing and oral  argument, the Court unanimously vacated the earlier Decision, and held  that a determination of the workers' compensation board as to duration  of disability could not be granted preclusive effect.
  • Perl v. Meher, 2011 WL 5838721 (2011) (holding, inter alia,  that in a threshhold personal injury case, a plaintiff is not required  to proffer "contemporaneous" numerical measurements of range of motion  in order to defeat summary judgment) 
  • Natiello v. Carrion, 73 A.D.3d 1070 (2d Dep't 2010)  (annulling determination that mother failed to provide adequate  supervision of her 16 year old autistic son and had committed  educational neglect of her other emotionally disturbed son) 
  • Verdugo v. Seven Thirty One Ltd. Partnership, 70 A.D.3d  600 (1st Dep't 2010) (dismissing the "act of God" affirmative defense,  and determining that the existence of 30 mph winds, which caused plywood  to become airborne and strike Plaintiff in the head, was not an  "unusual, extraordinary and unprecedented event"). 
  • Valdez ex rel. Donely v. U.S., 518 F.3d. 173 (2d Cir.  2008) (reinstating a plaintiffs' medical malpractice action as timely  based upon federal accrual and equitable estoppel rules). 
  • Ellis v. Chao, 336 F.3d 114 (2d Cir. 2003) (finding that  candidate for a union election raised a question of fact whether the  Secretary of Labor's decision not to sue to set aside a union election  was arbitrary and capricious). 
  • Galanos v. Galanos, 20 A.D.3d 450 (2d Dep't 2005) (disqualifying the husband's counsel in a matrimonial action who had  represented the wife's father in prior proceedings; the first case in New York to find that a father and child's finances were so inextricably  intertwined as to justify disqualification). 
  • Massimi v. Massimi, 35 A.D.3d 400 (2d Dep't 2006) (ruling  that the husband had commingled marital and separate property, thereby  entitling the wife to a distributive award of that property). 
  • Xiao Yang Chen v. Fischer, 6 N.Y.3d 94 (2005) (as amicus curiae counsel for the Women's Bar of the State of New York) (ruling that  joinder of tort claims in a matrimonial action is permissive, not  mandatory).
