People v. Callahangreen
ny · 1992 · cited in 5 New York opinions naming this issue, 1993–2011
2 sentences

2011We repeat what we said in People v Callahan ( 80 NY2d 273, 285 [1992]): “[I]n cases where there has been a bargained-for waiver of the right to appeal and the intermediate appellate court determines that the judgment of conviction should be affirmed, it would be helpful if the intermediate appellate court would specify whether its disposition is based on the existence of an enforceable waiver or instead on the merits of the defendant’s appellate claims.

2007Our “disposition is based on the existence of an enforceable waiver,” and, in the alternative, “on the merits of the defendant’s appellate claims.” (People v Callahan, 80 NY2d 273, 285 [1992].) Regardless of whether the appeal waiver applies to defendant’s pro se claim, we find that claim without merit.

2010In analyzing this issue, we consider principles of contract interpretation in the context of prenuptial agreements and revisit our determination in Richards v Richards ( 232 AD2d 303, 303 [1996]), where we found that under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act “only a spouse can waive spousal rights to employee plan benefits, that a fiancee is not a spouse, and that such rights, therefore, cannot be effectively waived in a prenuptial agreement.” After entering into a prenuptial agreement, the parties were married on April 6, 1992.

2007Here, defendant expressly waived his right to appeal during the colloquy and “executed a detailed written waiver acknowledging his right to appeal, relating that he had discussed his appellate options with his attorney and stating that he was waiving his right to appeal voluntarily” (People v Fludd, 33 AD3d 1124, 1125 [2006], lv denied 9 NY3d 843 [2007]; see People v Ramos, 7 NY3d 737, 738 [2006]).

Mitchell v. New York Hospitalgreen
ny · 1984 · cited in 1 New York opinions naming this issue, 1992–1992
2 sentences

1992Section 15-108 (c) of the General Obligations Law may be waived by agreement (see, Mitchell v New York Hosp., 61 NY2d 208 ); and article second of the Special Arbitration Agreement set forth hereinabove, constitutes an enforceable waiver of General Obligations Law § 15-108 (c), which tends to effectuate the public policy of insuring prompt compensation of injured parties, while reserving the right of one tortfeasor to seek contribution from another.

1992(Mitchell v New York Hosp., supra, at 214.) Article second of the Special Arbitration Agreement is not, however, applicable to the facts and circumstances presented in the matter before the court.

1983A suspension was deemed to be but one kind of ouster (i.e., dispossession) of the employee from his office or position, to which he nevertheless retained title pending a final valid disciplinary determination (see Matter of Jerry v Board of Educ., 35 NY2d 534, 545-546 [dissent], supra). 3 Reinstatement to the position (requiring the employer to accept and pay for his services) was a precedent to any claim for back wages or salary (see Toscano v McGoldrick, 300 NY 156 ).

1997Moreover, among the five definitions of "accrue" in Webster's Third New International Dictionary (Unabridged) (1966), the most pertinent for a legal context is "to come into existence as an enforceable claim " ( id. , at 13 [emphasis supplied]).
