APPELLATE TERM OF THE SUPREME COURT, FIRST DEPARTMENT

PRESENT: McKEON, P.J., DAVIS, SCHOENFELD, JJ
.

Nancy Stubbs, Plaintiff-Appellant, No. 570508/06

against

Linda Mov Marmo, Defendant-Respondent.


Plaintiff appeals from (1) a judgment of the Civil Court of the City of New York, New York County (Arthur F. Engoron, J.), entered December 16, 2005, after a nonjury trial, in favor of defendant dismissing the complaint, and (2) an order (same court and Judge), dated April 5, 2006, which denied plaintiff's motion for a new trial.


PER CURIAM:

Judgment and order (Arthur F. Engoron, J.), entered December 16, 2005 and April 5, 2006, respectively, affirmed, without costs.

Plaintiff's complaint was properly dismissed. To the extent that plaintiff's action was based upon allegations of harassment, New York does not recognize a common-law cause of action for harassment (see Edelstein v Farber, 27 AD3d 202 [2006]), and the conduct complained of did not give rise to any other cognizable cause of action or basis for tort liability.

This constitutes the decision and order of the court. [*2]
