Acorn Properties v. East 7th Realty Assoc

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Apr 29, 1997
238 A.D.2d 279 (N.Y. App. Div. 1997)

Opinion

April 29, 1997


Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Elliott Wilk, J.), entered January 12, 1996, which, in a mortgage foreclosure action, insofar as appealed from, denied plaintiff's motion for a deficiency judgment, unanimously affirmed, with costs.

Plaintiff's claims that defendant had committed fraud in procuring the mortgage and waste in managing the property, and that the exception to the nonrecourse provision of the mortgage therefore applied, was properly rejected as untimely, having been first raised only in plaintiff's reply papers on the motion. It was plaintiff's burden to come forward with evidence, if not in the foreclosure proceeding then certainly in its motion for a deficiency judgment, that defendant had violated a condition of the nonrecourse mortgage ( cf., e.g., First Nationwide Bank v. Brookhaven Realty Assocs., 223 A.D.2d 618, lv dismissed 88 N.Y.2d 963). Moreover, the claim of fraud lacks merit ( see, FGH Realty Credit Corp. v. Bonati, 226 A.D.2d 188).

Concur — Murphy, P.J., Sullivan, Rosenberger, Rubin and Andrias, JJ.
