2014With regard to the requisite specificity as to the place where the claim arose, we note that “ ‘[w]hat is required is not absolute exactness, but simply a statement made with sufficient definiteness to enable [defendant] to be able to investigate the claim promptly and to ascertain its liability under the circumstances’ ” (Deep v State of New York, 56 AD3d 1260 , 1260-1261 [2008]; see Lepkowski v State of New York, 1 NY3d 201, 207 [2003]).

2014The document herein, i.e., the notice of intent, stated that the accident occurred when claimant “slipped on ice and snow on the walk way” as she “approached the entry to [the] correctional facility.” We conclude that such description in the notice of intent satisfies the requirements of Court of Claims Act § 11 (b) (see Acee v State of New York, 81 AD3d 1410, 1411 [2011]).

2 sentences

2024While section 11(b) does not require "absolute exactness," the "guiding principle informing" section 11(b) pleading requirements is whether the State is "able to investigate the claim promptly and to ascertain its [*2]liability under the circumstances" ( Martinez v State of New York , 215 AD3d 815, 816-817 [internal quotation marks omitted]; see Meyer v State of New York , 213 AD3d 753, 755 ; Grumet v State of New York , 256 AD2d 441, 442 ).

2007While section 11 (b) does not require “absolute exactness,” a claim must set forth the nature of the claim and the time and place where it arose (see Grumet v State of New York, 256 AD2d 441, 442 [1998]).

1990This notice was patently insufficient with respect to setting forth the place where the claim arose with adequate specificity (see, General Municipal Law § 50-e [2]; Caselli v City of New York, 105 AD2d 251 ; Cruz v City of New York, 95 AD2d 790 ; see also, Fendig v City of New York, 132 AD2d 520 ).

Common Council of Gloversville v. Town Board of Town of Johnstowngreen
nyappdiv · 1989 · cited in 1 New York opinions naming this issue, 2002–2002

2002(See 22 NYCRR 208.41-a.) Where a notice of petition fails to specify the details with respect to the place of the hearing, the petition fails “in its essential purpose of apprising respondent * * * that, at a stated time and place, it must appear.” (See Matter of Common Council of City of Gloversville v Town Bd. of Town of Johnstown, 144 AD2d 90, 92 [3d Dept 1989].) Failure to specify the “time and place of the hearing on the petition” is a jurisdictional defect requiring dismissal.

2002(See Common Council of City of Gloversville v Town Bd., supra; Tamburo v P & C Food Mkts., 36 AD2d 1017 [4th Dept 1971]; Chalfonte Realty Corp. v Streator, Inc., 142 Misc 2d 501 [Civ Ct, NY County]; Union Hosp. of Bronx v Henry, 132 Misc 2d 1049 [Civ Ct, Bronx County 1986].)

2001General Municipal Law § 50-e (2) provides, inter alia, that a notice of claim shall set forth “the time when, the place where and the manner in which the claim arose.” The requirement that a notice of claim set forth the place where the claim arose is met when the notice describes the location with sufficient particularity to enable the defendant to locate the alleged defect and to conduct a meaningful investigation so as to assess the merits of the claim before conditions change and memories fade (see, Thomas v Town of Oyster Bay, 190 AD2d 731 ; Miles v City of New York, 173 AD2d 298, 299 ; C
