Stonehill v. Diplomat Owners Corp.

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jul 21, 1997
241 A.D.2d 517 (N.Y. App. Div. 1997)

Opinion

July 21, 1997

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


Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs, and the matter is remitted to the Supreme Court, Nassau County, for the entry of a judgment declaring that the sale by the defendant of the shares allocated to the plaintiffs' apartment was not fraudulent.

The plaintiffs sought to set aside a sale by the defendant, a residential cooperative corporation, of the shares allocated to the plaintiffs' apartment on the ground that it was a fraudulent and illegal transaction. The plaintiffs also asserted causes of action to recover damages for wrongful eviction and breach of the right to quiet enjoyment. However, the defendant made out a prima facie case for summary judgment in its favor and the plaintiffs failed to raise a triable issue of fact with respect to their claims. Accordingly, the defendant's cross motion for summary judgment was properly granted (see, Zuckerman v City of New York, 49 N.Y.2d 557, 563).

O'Brien, J. P., Joy, Goldstein and Luciano, JJ., concur.
