New York Court of Appeals
Peter Mondello v. New York Blood…
October 22, 199280 N.Y.2d 219
Summary
The New York Court of Appeals reversed the Appellate Division and granted the Blood Center’s motion to dismiss the wrongful death actions as time‑barred, holding that the Hospital and Blood Center are not "united in interest" under CPLR 203(b) and therefore the relation‑back doctrine does not apply.
