Clarence R. VALENTINE, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. MUSEUM OF MODERN ART, Defendant-Appellee.

United States Court of Appeals, Second Circuit.

Decided July 5, 1994.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Colin A. Moore, Brooklyn, NY (Arleen T. Ralph, of counsel), for plaintiff-appellant.

Proskauer Rose Goetz & Mendelsohn, New York City (Allen I. Fagin, Seth M. Popper, of counsel), for defendant-appellee.

Before: KEARSE and ALTIMARI, Circuit Judges, and SEYBERT, District Judge.


PER CURIAM:

Plaintiff Clarence R. Valentine appeals from a judgment of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, John S. Martin, Jr., Judge, dismissing his action on account of Valentine's failure to comply with an order of the court. On appeal, Valentine contends that use of the harsh remedy of dismissal was inappropriate. We disagree and therefore affirm the district court's order of dismissal.
