Pierre v. Lo-Rac Fuel Corp.

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Oct 9, 2001
287 A.D.2d 492 (N.Y. App. Div. 2001)

Opinion

Submitted March 21, 2001.

October 9, 2001.

In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the plaintiff appeals (1) from an order of the Supreme Court, Dutchess County (Pagones, J.), dated July 13, 2000, which denied her motion to restore the action to the trial calendar, and (2) from so much of an order of the same court, dated August 28, 2000, as, upon renewal, adhered to the original determination.

Finkelstein, Levine, Gittelsohn Partners, Newburgh, N Y (Andrew L. Spitz of counsel), for appellant.

Kerr Weiss, New Paltz, N.Y., for respondents.

Before: DAVID S. RITTER, J.P., GABRIEL M. KRAUSMAN, ANITA R. FLORIO, SANDRA J. FEUERSTEIN, JJ.


DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the appeal from the order dated July 13, 2000, is dismissed, as that order was superseded by the order dated August 28, 2000, made upon renewal; and it is further,

ORDERED that the order dated August 28, 2000, is reversed insofar as appealed from, on the law, the order dated July 13, 2000, is vacated, and the plaintiff's motion to restore the action to the trial calendar is granted; and it is further,

ORDERED that the appellant is awarded one bill of costs.

In light of this court's decision in Basetti v. Nour (___ A.D.2d ___ [2d Dept., Oct. 1, 2001]), the plaintiff's timely motion to restore the action to the trial calendar should have been granted.

RITTER, J.P., KRAUSMAN, FLORIO and FEUERSTEIN, JJ., concur.
