Matter of VSA Architectural Consultants, P.C. v. State of New York Div. of Human Rights

138 A.D.3d 499, 28 N.Y.S.3d 304

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York·Decided April 12, 2016·No. 796 100146/15·Published

Opinion

Order and judgment (one paper), Supreme Court, New York County (Carol E. Huff, J.), entered July 15, 2015, which denied the petition seeking to, among other things, annul a determination of respondent State of New York Division of Human Rights (DHR), dated October 24, 2014, denying petitioner’s application to vacate DHR’s determination that probable cause existed to believe that petitioner had engaged in disability discrimination against respondent Isabel Payano in violation of the New York State Human Rights Law (Executive Law § 290 et seq.), and dismissed the proceeding, unanimously affirmed, without costs.

This proceeding is barred, because petitioner failed to exhaust its administrative remedies (id.; Matter of Ken Edrich Leather Accessories v New York State Div. of Human Rights, 269 AD2d 334 [1st Dept 2000]).

We have considered petitioner’s remaining contentions and find them unavailing.

Concur — Friedman, J.P., Sweeny, Saxe, Richter and Kahn, JJ.
