Coronet Capital Company v. Spodek

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Oct 4, 1999
265 A.D.2d 291 (N.Y. App. Div. 1999)

Opinion

Argued June 15, 1999

October 4, 1999

Appeal much of an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County (G. Aronin, J.).


ORDERED that the order entered February 6, 1998, is affirmed insofar as appealed and cross-appealed from, without costs or disbursements; and it is further,

ORDERED that the order dated June 5, 1997, is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

It is well settled that "applications for adjournments for any purpose are ordinarily addressed to the trial court's sound discretion" ( Cuevas v. Cuevas, 110 A.D.2d 873, 877; see, People v. Spears, 64 N.Y.2d 698, 699-700; Treppeda v. Treppeda, 212 A.D.2d 592). Here, the Supreme Court did not improvidently exercise its discretion when it denied the motion for an adjournment.

Contrary to the temporary receiver's contention, the court properly determined that he is entitled to the 5 % maximum statutory commission ( see, Coronet Capital Co. v. Spodek 202 A.D.2d 20).

The appellants-respondents' remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit.

RITTER, J.P., THOMPSON, FEUERSTEIN, and SMITH. JJ., concur.
