Falzano v Glazer

Read the official decision: 2026 NY Slip Op 05873

Holding The court affirmed the dismissal of the complaint because the unambiguous legal description in the 1989 deed conclusively established that the plaintiff had no ownership interest in the disputed right-of-way segment. The court further held that the plaintiff’s claim of unilateral mistake was insufficient to warrant reformation of the deed absent allegations of fraud.

The court’s words

resolves all factual issues as a matter of law, and conclusively disposes of [plaintiff's] claim[s]
