Jennifer Cangro, appellant pro se.
Jennifer Cangro, appellant pro se.
Opinion
Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Richard F. Braun, J.), entered July 10, 2013, which denied plaintiff's motion to compel the production of discovery and dismissed the action, unanimously affirmed, with costs.
Supreme Court properly dismissed the action which, as with previous similar actions commenced by plaintiff, arises out of her divorce judgment (see 90 A.D.3d 470, 933 N.Y.S.2d 866 [1st Dept.2011], appeal dismissed 18 N.Y.3d 985, 945 N.Y.S.2d 633, 968 N.E.2d 987 [2012], 61 A.D.3d 430, 876 N.Y.S.2d 396 [1st Dept.2009] ). Furthermore, plaintiff failed to comply with prior orders requiring her to obtain written approval from the administrative judge before commencing the action (see e.g. Cangro v. Cangro, 288 A.D.2d 417, 733 N.Y.S.2d 899 [2d Dept.2001] ).
In any event, in addition to the fact that the complaint amounts to an impermissible collateral attack on the aforementioned divorce judgment, it fails to state a viable claim (see CPLR 321l[a][7] ). The fraud allegations are not sufficiently detailed (see CPLR 3016[b] ), and the remainder of the complaint consists of bare legal conclusions (see Caniglia v. Chicago Tribune–N.Y. News Syndicate, 204 A.D.2d 233, 612 N.Y.S.2d 146 [1994] ).
