How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- finding that, where plaintiffs had already received a judgment in their favor and sought to amend the judgment to add pre-judgment interest, under N.Y. C.P.L.R. 5001, \plaintiffs were unquestionably entitled to pre-judgment interest from some date\
- refusing to allow correction of nonclerical error by jury omitting pre-judgment interest, but allowing addition of post-judgment interest because omission of such interest was merely “ministerial” error
- “[Rule 60] on its face applies only to Clerical mistakes and errors in judgments arising from oversight or omission.”
