Opinion
April 18, 1994
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Rockland County (Lefkowitz, J.).
Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.
Since the actions involve common questions of law and fact, and since the plaintiff would not suffer substantial prejudice, the court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in consolidating the separate foreclosure actions to the extent of directing a joint trial of the two actions (see, CPLR 602 [a]; Johnson v Berger, 171 A.D.2d 728; Mideal Homes Corp. v LC Concrete Work, 90 A.D.2d 789). Thompson, J.P., Rosenblatt, Ritter, Friedmann and Krausman, JJ., concur.
