United States Court of Appeals, Second Circuit.

Decided January 18, 1996.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Daniel A. Lowenthal, III, New York City (Francis Carling, Winthrop, Stimson, Putnam & Roberts, New York City, of counsel), for Appellants.

Donato Caruso, New York City (William M. Spelman, Lambos & Giardino, New York City, of counsel), for Appellees.

Before: MESKILL, ALTIMARI and McLAUGHLIN, Circuit Judges.


MESKILL, Circuit Judge:

This is an appeal from a judgment of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York dismissing a complaint under Rule 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. We affirm the dismissal and hold that the single employer doctrine does not apply in the absence of an employer-employee relationship at the time of the alleged wrong.
