In the Matter of Kimber L. WILKES, appellant, v. Carol VAN HOOKE, et al., respondents.
Alvin L. Spitzer, Pearl River, N.Y., for appellant. Joseph J. Haspel, Goshen, N.Y., for respondent Carol Van Hooke.
Alvin L. Spitzer, Pearl River, N.Y., for appellant. Joseph J. Haspel, Goshen, N.Y., for respondent Carol Van Hooke.
Warren E. Berbit, Village Attorney, New City, N.Y. (Ira M. Emanuel of counsel), for respondents Village of Montebello and Village of Montebello Planning Board.
In a proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 to review a determination of the Village of Montebello Planning Board granting approval to Carol Van Hooke of a site plan, the petitioner appeals from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Rockland County (Alfieri, J.), dated January 11, 2011, which denied the petition and dismissed the proceeding.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed, with one bill of costs to the respondents appearing separately and filing separate briefs.
Contrary to the petitioner's contention, the Supreme Court properly denied the petition and dismissed the proceeding as time-barred ( see Village Law § 7–725–a[11]; CPLR 306–b). The petitioner's contention on appeal that she should be granted an extension of her time to serve the petition for good cause or in the interest of justice ( see CPLR 306–b), is not properly before this Court ( see NYU Hosp. for Joint Diseases v. Country Wide Ins. Co., 84 A.D.3d 1043, 925 N.Y.S.2d 89).
Those portions of the petitioner's brief that refer to matter dehors the record have not been considered in the determination of the appeal ( see Matter Swinson v. Brewington, 84 A.D.3d 1251, 1254, 925 N.Y.S.2d 96; Mendoza v. Plaza Homes, LLC, 55 A.D.3d 692, 693, 865 N.Y.S.2d 342).
The petitioner's remaining contentions are without merit.
