A Manhattan lawyer who sued his estranged wife for allegedly giving him herpes didn't get it from her, court papers say. White-shoe attorney Frederick Tanne, 47, filed suit against his wife of 22 years, Amy Tanne, 46, earlier this year, charging her straying had left him with Herpes Simplex Virus 2, an STD that caused him to suffer "pain, suffering, emotional, mental, psychological and physical injuries and loss of enjoyment of life." In court papers filed yesterday, Amy's lawyer, Thomas Mullaney, said his client had a blood test last month and "presented as 'negative' for HSV-2, more commonly known as genital herpes, with which Mr. Tanne is allegedly infected." Reps for Tanne, a senior partner at Kirkland & Ellis, could not be reached for comment. dareah.gregorian@nypost.com</p> http://gothamist.com/2008/09/21/lawyers_contracts_herpes_sues_every.php#comment-1467886 http://gothamist.com/2008/09/21/lawyers_contracts_herpes_sues_every.php#comment-1467886 Comments Mon, 22 Sep 2008 11:55:55 -0500 <p>From Mount Kisco to a Park Avenue apartment.
