Opinion
May 1, 1995
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Roncallo, J.).
Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.
The Supreme Court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in permitting the defendant Kurtz to file a late answer. The delay on the part of the defendant was brief and the excuse for the delay was reasonable (see, CPLR 3012 [d]). Bracken, J.P., Rosenblatt, Krausman and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
