4448. WARREN REDLICH, plf-res, v. ROGER STONE def-ap, ANDREW MILLER def — Rupp Baase Pfalzgraf Cunningham LLC, Buffalo (Benjamin D. Burge of counsel), for Roger Stone and Michael Caputo, ap — Paladino, Cavan, Quinlivan & Pierce, Buffalo (Shannon M. Heneghan of counsel), for Carl Paladino, ap — WARREN REDLICH, NEW YORK, RESPONDENT PRO SE.—Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Richard F. Braun, J.), entered April 22, 2016, which, inter alia, denied the respective motions of defendant Carl Paladino and defendants Roger Stone and Michael Caputo for summary judgment dismissing the complaint as against them, unanimously affirmed, without costs.

Plaintiff, a 2010 gubernatorial candidate, commenced this defamation action against, among others, Stone, who was working on the campaign of one of plaintiff’s opponents, defendant Kristin Davis, and against Caputo, the campaign manager for defendant Paladino. The action arose from a “Sexual Predator Alert” sent to New York residents in advance of the election, which claimed that plaintiff was a “sick twisted pervert” who “constitutes a public danger,” and urged people to call the police if they saw him. A group called “People for a Safer New York” took responsibility for the mailer. Plaintiff alleged that defendants orchestrated the mailer in a concerted effort to cause him reputational harm, and to improve their odds in the 2010 gubernatorial election.
