Second Circuit Certifies Question to NY Court of Appeals

In Reliance Insurance Co. v. Polyvision Corp., the Second Circuit recently certified the following question to the New York Court of Appeals:

Does CPLR 205(a) allow a corporation to refile an action within six months when a previously, timely-filed action has mistakenly been commenced in the name of a different, related corporate entity and has been dismissed for naming the wrong plaintiff?
