Steuerman v. Broughton

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Oct 14, 1986
123 A.D.2d 681 (N.Y. App. Div. 1986)

Opinion

October 14, 1986

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Gerard, J.).


Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements.

Special Term properly exercised its discretion in denying the defendants' motion to consolidate. Consolidation would have substantially prejudiced the plaintiff in the Civil Court action, which has already been scheduled for arbitration (see, Inspiration Enters. v Inland Credit Corp., 54 A.D.2d 839, appeal dismissed 40 N.Y.2d 1014). Lazer, J.P., Mangano, Bracken and Niehoff, JJ., concur.
