East Hampton Union Free School District v. Sandpebble Builders, Inc., and Victor Canseco

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division’s order denying the school district’s request to amend its complaint to pierce the corporate veil of Sandpebble Builders. The court held that the plaintiff did not allege facts showing that the shareholder exercised complete domination and abused the corporate form, and therefore no basis existed to hold the shareholder personally liable.
