APPEAL, by permission of the Court of Appeals, from an order of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the Second Judicial Department, entered June 9, 2009. The Appellate Division modified, on the law, so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Daniel Palmieri, J.; op 2008 NY Slip Op 33619[U]), as had confirmed an arbitration award and granted that branch of the cross motion of defendants Rhonda Globman, also known as Rhonda Grobman, and Adam J. Chernoff effectively disallowing plaintiff pre-arbitration award interest on her award. The modification consisted of deleting that provision of the order granting the cross motion effectively disallowing pre-arbitration award interest, and substituting therefor a provision denying that branch of the cross motion.
