Article 78 appeal for FOIL records denied
Matter of McCrory v Village of Scarsdale
Petitioner brought about this Article 78 appeal to review an order granting a motion by the Village of Scarsdale to dismiss her petition as time-barred. Petitioner sought to compel the Village to disclose certain records pursuant to the Freedom of Information Law. The Court felt that the original judgment was proper due to the proceeding not being commenced until five months after the Village informed petitioner that it would not disclose the records. The statute of limitations was four-months and therefore the appeal was not timely.
Accordingly, the Supreme Court affirmed the order and judgment and dismissed the petition.
