Berenson v. Town of New Castlegreen2 sentences1987In the leading case of Berenson v Town of New Castle ( 38 NY2d 102, 110 [1975]), the Court of Appeals set forth a two-part test for courts to use to determine the validity of a zoning ordinance challenged as exclusionary, as follows: "The first branch of the test, then, is simply whether the board has provided a properly balanced and well ordered plan for the community * * * Of course, what may be appropriate for one community may differ substantially from what is appropriate for another * * * "Secondly, in enacting a zoning ordinance, consideration must be given to regional needs and requirem 1985With regard to the second component of the first branch of the test, moreover, the plaintiffs have been unable to demonstrate that the ordinance in question fails to provide for a “well ordered plan” for the community (see, Berenson v Town of New Castle, supra, p 110), since neither their lay nor expert testimony was successful in overcoming either the strong presumption of constitutionality which attaches to such an ordinance or the testimony of the defendants’ planning expert, Mr. Schulman. | 2 | 2 |

Of course, what may be appropriate for one community may differ substantially from what is appropriate for another. 2 Thus, in this case, the court must ascertain what types of housing presently exist in New Castle, their quantity and quality, and whether this array adequately meets the present needs of the town. | 2 | 1975–1985 |

Knight v. Wilcox
neutral
1 sentence1854Upon the motion to set aside the nonsuit granted on the first trial, we held, as to the point of loss of services, that pregnancy and the birth of a child were not essential to the right of action, and that it was sufficient if illness of the daughter, whereby she was unable to labor, had been produced by shame for the seduction. ( 15 Barb. 279 .) In addition to the references in the opinion then delivered, in support of the first branch of this doctrine, I cite Briggs v. Evans, (5 Iredell, 16,) Sedg. on Dam. 2d ed. 543. | 1 | 1854–1854 |
