GRUENEWALD v. 132 WEST 31ST ST. REALTY CORP

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.
Jun 6, 1994

Ordered that the order is reversed, on the law, with costs, and the motion is granted.

The relief enumerated in Labor Law § 740 was intended by the Legislature to be the exclusive remedies available to a plaintiff (see, Labor Law § 740). Since Labor Law § 740 (5) does not authorize recovery for punitive damages, the plaintiff's demand for that relief should have been dismissed (see, Hoffman v Altana, Inc., 198 A.D.2d 210). Thompson, J.P., Rosenblatt, Ritter, Friedmann and Krausman, JJ., concur.
