 In the Matter of Haunted Forest, LLC, et al., Respondents,
v
Town of Wilson et al., Appellants. (Appeal No. 2.)

Phillips Lytle LLP, Buffalo (Craig R. Bucki of counsel), for respondents-defendants-appellants.

Lippes Mathias LLP, Clarence (Justin J. Andreozzi of counsel), for petitioners-plaintiffs-respondents.

Appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Niagara County (Frank A. Sedita, III, J.), entered September 26, 2024, in a hybrid CPLR article 78 proceeding and action. The order denied the motion of respondents-defendants seeking, inter alia, leave to renew and leave to amend their answer.

It is hereby ordered that the order so appealed from is unanimously modified on the law by granting the motion insofar as it sought leave to amend the answer to add the fifteenth objection in point of law for failure to timely serve a notice of claim and dismissing the fourth and tenth causes of action, and as modified the order is affirmed without costs.

Same memorandum as in Matter of Haunted Forest, LLC v Town of Wilson ([appeal No. 1] 240 AD3d 1340 [4th Dept 2025]). Present—Lindley, J.P., Montour, Greenwood, Nowak and Keane, JJ.
