Anonymous v. Anonymous

In Anonymous v. Anonymous (154 Misc. 2d 46), that court was confronted with a plaintiff claiming a toll due to her trauma induced insanity and concomitant memory loss. The plaintiff in that case submitted psychiatric evidence as to the existence and extent of her trauma related psychological injuries. In this case currently before the court the plaintiff is not claiming insanity and has not suffered a memory loss. Further, the court in Anonymous ordered a fact-finding hearing due to what that court considered an entwinement between the issue of that plaintiff's insanity and her allegations regarding that defendants actions and the resulting impact upon her. It was the presence of genuine questions as to plaintiff's mental condition that persuaded the court in Anonymous to order a hearing as to that and all related issues. (Anonymous v. Anonymous, supra, at 56.)
