SUTHERLAND v. CITY OF NEW YORK

Court of Appeals of the State of New York.
Nov 12, 1985

Order affirmed, with costs, and question certified answered in the affirmative. We interpret the question certified as asking whether the Appellate Division had the power to reinstate the natural parent as guardian ad litem. We conclude that it had that power, and pass on no other issue (Herrick v Second Cuthouse, 64 N.Y.2d 692; Brady v Ottaway Newspapers, 63 N.Y.2d 1031).

Concur: Chief Judge WACHTLER and Judges JASEN, KAYE, ALEXANDER and TITONE. Taking no part: Judges MEYER and SIMONS.
