Mauro v. Orville
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION OF THE COURT
Mercure, J. P.
This appeal poses the question of whether a male employer’s discharge of a female employee because of strained relations which existed following the employer’s termination of their consensual sexual relationship may be found of itself to constitute sexual discrimination in violation of Executive Law § 296. We answer the question in the negative and accordingly reverse so much of Supreme Court’s order as granted partial summary judgment in favor of plaintiff on her first cause of action.1
