Homemakers Inc., of Long Island v. Williams

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department

122 A.D.2d 934 (N.Y. App. Div. 1986)

Opinion

August 25, 1986

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Pantano, J.).


Order affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

Contrary to the defendants' contention, the record discloses that the court properly exercised its discretion in granting, in part, the plaintiff's motion to vacate a prior order, dated May 22, 1984, which was based upon an earlier motion made by the defendant Robert Williams. The prior order was apparently granted upon default due to a clerical error through which the said defendant's motion was placed upon the calendar some three days prior to the return date designated in the notice of motion. The ensuing default was, therefore, not attributable to the plaintiff's conduct.

Further, the court did not err in denying the defendants' motion to renew their application for a turn-over order pursuant to CPLR 2606. Pursuant to an order dated January 3, 1985, which granted the plaintiff leave to make its application to vacate the order dated May 22, 1984, the defendants' motion for a turn-over order was denied, without prejudice to its renewal, in the event the plaintiff failed to timely move for vacatur. Since the plaintiff's motion was made in conformity with the January 3, 1985, order, the defendant's motion to renew was properly denied.

We have reviewed the defendants' remaining contentions and find them to be without merit. Lawrence, J.P., Eiber, Kooper and Spatt, JJ., concur.
