MATTER OF SEICKEL v. STATE INS. FUND

8978, 260476/11.

102 A.D.3d 465 (2013)

958 N.Y.S.2d 339

2013 NY Slip Op 126

In the Matter of ELIZABETH SEICKEL, Respondent, v. STATE INSURANCE FUND et al., Appellants.

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department.

Decided January 10, 2013.


Petitioner's projected future medical expenses are too speculative to be considered in calculating the total benefit to respondents from her recovery in the litigation (Matter of Bissell v Town of Amherst, 18 N.Y.3d 697 [2012]). Thus, respondents' equitable share of petitioner's litigation costs must be recalculated (see Burns v Varriale, 9 N.Y.3d 207, 215 n 4 [2007]).
