Opinion
February 5, 1996
Appeal from the Surrogate's Court, Queens County (Nahman, S.).
Ordered that the appeal from so much of the order as denied reargument is dismissed since no appeal lies from an order denying reargument; and it is further,
Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as reviewed, with costs payable by the appellant personally.
Because the appellant failed to proffer a reasonable excuse for his default, the Surrogate's Court properly denied his motion pursuant to CPLR 5015 (a) (1) to vacate the default (see, Tortorello v. Tortorello, 161 A.D.2d 633; Smith v. Fritz, 148 A.D.2d 438).
We have considered the appellant's remaining contentions and find them to be without merit. Rosenblatt, J.P., Hart, Krausman and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
