- Fabia v Power Auth. of the State of N.Y.252 AD3d 217
The court held that the plaintiff’s claims for common-law negligence and violation of Labor Law § 200 are not entirely preempted but may proceed by substituting the federal standard of care. Conversely, claims under Labor Law §§ 240(1) and 241(6) were dismissed because their strict liability standards conflict with federal aviation regulations.

- People v Nymeen C.252 AD3d 1
An order dismissing an application for resentencing pursuant to the Domestic Violence Survivors Justice Act without prejudice is appealable as of right because it constitutes an order denying resentencing. The court affirmed the dismissal because the defendant failed to provide evidence corroborating that she was a victim of domestic violence at the specific time of the offense.
