Eston v. Backer

204 Misc. 162, 119 N.Y.S.2d 273, 1953 N.Y. Misc. LEXIS 1530

Opinion

Conroy, J.

This is a motion by the Attorney-General of the State of New York to vacate and set aside a subpcena duces tecum served upon the Industrial Commissioner of the State of New York. Section 537 of the Labor Law is clearly mandatory in its language and prevents the use, in any court in any action or proceeding pending therein unless the commissioner is a party therein, of information in his possession required by him in connection with unemployment insurance matters. The motion is granted and the subpoena is vacated.
