KABATT v. BOARD OF EDUCATION OF THE CITY OF ELMIRA

The plaintiff, a married school teacher, applied for a leave of absence to commence on December 3, 1934, to about February 15, 1935, or as soon thereafter as her physician would permit. She was delivered of a child on January 11, 1935. The board of education granted her leave of absence but made it for a term of two years pursuant to their rule, passed November 13, 1934. The plaintiff appealed to the Commissioner of Education, who found that the two-year period was not unreasonable. This was conclusive and final. ( Matter of Levitch v. Board of Education, 243 N.Y. 373.) Judgment unanimously affirmed, with costs.
