New York Supreme Court

Decided January 13, 1961PublishedCited by 6 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtOweh McGtverk, J.

This is. a proceeding under article 78 of the Civil Practice Act to set aside petitioner’s expulsion from respondent, a membership corporation. Respondent has admitted in its answer the allegation that membership in respondent is a valuable asset.

It is well settled that on a proceeding to review expulsion by a corporation “ the court will not substitute its judgment for that of a governing body of an organization. The court will only look into the record to ascertain whether the procedure was in accordance with the by-laws”. (Matter of Pegg v. United Mut. Life Ins. Co., 6 Misc 2d 600 [1957].)
