NEW YORK CONVENTION CENTER
OPERATING CORPORATION, d/b/a
THE JACOB K. JAVITS
CONVENTION CENTER,
Defendants.
J. PAUL OETKEN, District Judge:
On January 26, 2023, Defendant New York Convention Center Operating Corporation
(NYCCOC) moved to dismiss this action pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 12(b)(1)
and 12(b)(6) based on Plaintiff’s failure to serve it with a Notice of Claim within the 90-day
period required under New York Law where the defendant is a public benefit corporation. (ECF
No. 13.)
Plaintiff now moves for leave to discontinue the action without prejudice as against
Defendant NYCCOC so that she may file a late notice of claim and an amended complaint
before the Supreme Court of New York, pursuant to General Municipal Law § 50–e(7). (ECF
No. 17.) Plaintiff’s letter motion for leave to discontinue is unopposed.
Plaintiff’s motion is therefore granted. The action is discontinued as against Defendant
NYCCOC, without prejudice. See FED. R. CIV P. 41(a)(2).
