New York Court of Appeals
Doctors Council v. New York City Employees' Retirement System
May 31, 198871 N.Y.2d 669
Summary
The New York Court of Appeals held that the Administrative Code's plain language grants NYCERS membership to part‑time doctors, reversing the Appellate Division and granting summary judgment to the plaintiffs. The Court emphasized that where a statute is clear, extrinsic aids and agency constructions are irrelevant.
