Sumario:We discuss the results of searches for new physics phenomena with high pT leptons in the final state, using pp collisions at 7 TeV delivered by LHC and collected with the CMS detector in 2010. Several of these early searches allow to set the most stringent limits on potential new physics phenomena such as new gauge bosons or leptoquarks. The analyses will be discussed, methods to determine background from data and the determined limits are presented. The results demonstrate good understanding of the detector and backgrounds in a variety of channels.
