131 A.D.2d 552 | N.Y. App. Div. | 1987
In an action, inter alia, to recover on certain promissory notes and guarantees, the plaintiff appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Durante, J.), dated September 2, 1986, which denied its motion to strike the defendants’ answers and for summary judgment.
Ordered that the order is reversed, on the law, with costs, the motion is granted, and the matter is remitted to the Supreme Court, Queens County, for the entry of an appropriate judgment.
In support of its motion for summary judgment (see, CPLR 3212), the plaintiff established its causes of action as a matter of law (see, Zuckerman v City of New York, 49 NY2d 557, 562; Ihmels v Kahn, 126 AD2d 701; Kruger Pulp & Paper Sales v Intact Containers, 100 AD2d 894, 895) by proof of the existence of the promissory notes, guarantee and overdraft in question, and the nonpayment of each according to its terms (see, Ihmels v Kahn, supra; Gateway State Bank v Shangri-La Private Club for Women, 113 AD2d 791, affd 67 NY2d 627;
