Description
The plaintiff is a teacher who is a member of the defendant Amityville Teachers Association. The defendant entered into a collective bargaining agreement with the Board of Education of the Amityville School District. The agreement provided, inter alia, that a tenured teacher may be eligible for up to 200 days from a sick leave bank to be established and administered by the defendant. The plaintiff applied for and was granted 33 days of sick leave in 2002. Thereafter, the plaintiff applied for additional sick leave benefits which were denied by the defendant. The plaintiff appealed and was denied for the final time on April 29, 2003. The plaintiff commenced this action in January 2005 for breach of contract. The defendant moves to dismiss the complaint asserting, inter alia, that the complaint fails to state a cause of action because her only claim against the union would be for a breach of the duty of fair representation and that any such cause of action is time-barred.
