Opinion
December 22, 1992
Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Helen E. Freedman, J.).
The evidence is sufficient to show that process was properly served pursuant to CPLR 308 (2), notwithstanding the process server's unavailability at the traverse hearing. Nor did the court's questioning of defendant result in its consideration of inadmissible evidence, the court's inquiries being relevant to defendant's knowledge of legal procedures relating to service of process and his credibility.
