"New York", United States of America

The following excerpt is from Sherman by Sherman v. Robinson by Robinson, 591 N.Y.S.2d 974, 606 N.E.2d 1365, 80 N.Y.2d 483 (N.Y. 1992):

We first consider plaintiffs' claims under General Obligations Law 11-100 and 11-101, which are an exception to the common-law rule that a person consuming alcoholic beverages is solely responsible for injuries caused by his or her own intoxication (see, D'Amico v. Christie, 71 N.Y.2d 76, 83, 524 N.Y.S.2d 1, 518 N.E.2d 896).
