Oxhandler v. Sekhar

In Oxhandler v. Sekhar, 88 AD2d 817 [1st Dept 1982] a case where the defendant shared offices with four other doctors, the Court held: "Although we accept that nurses did not regularly work in the doctors' offices, there is nothing in the testimony to exclude the reasonable inference that from time to time nurses would enter one or more of the doctors' offices in connection with hospital business. . . . It is entirely consistent with all of the testimony in the case that the process server indeed gave the summons and complaint to a nurse whom he reasonably believed to be associated with the doctor's office" (88 AD2d at 818).
