CHARLES V. WEITMAN OBTAINS SUMMARY JUDGMENT FOR A REHABILITATION CENTER

12-20-2023

In a Westchester County venued action, the plaintiff agency employee sued a rehabilitation facility where she worked as a per diem employee after she was injured when a footboard fell off a bed she was making.

Sheeley LLP moved for summary judgment because the plaintiff was a “special employee” who already received workers’ compensation through her general employer, which surrendered control of the plaintiff to the defendant.

The Supreme Court dismissed the action.
