Board of Cooperative Educational Services v. Buckley ( 1965 )

Order reversed, without costs. The hoard possesses the power to own property (Education Law, § 1958, subd. 6) which qualifies for an exemption under the Real Property Tax Law (§ 420). The mode of acquisition is deemed irrelevant for tax purposes.

Concur: Chief Judge Desmond and Judges Dye, Fuld, Van Voorhis, Burke, Scileppi and Bergan.
