179 A.D.3d 1106

Published by New York State Law Reporting Bureau pursuant to Judiciary Law § 431. As corrected through Wednesday, March 11, 2020

Michael T. Lamberti, New York, NY, for defendant/counterclaim plaintiff-appellant.

Jaspan Schlesinger LLP, Garden City, NY (Scott B. Fisher and Antonia M. Donohue of counsel), for counterclaim defendant-respondent.

In an action to foreclose a mortgage, the defendant/counterclaim plaintiff Mary M. Lamberti appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Thomas A. Adams, J.), entered November 15, 2016. The order granted the motion of the counterclaim defendant, Greenpoint Mortgage Funding, Inc., for summary judgment dismissing the counterclaims asserted against it by the defendant/counterclaim plaintiff Mary M. Lamberti.

Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.

We agree with the Supreme Court‘s determination to grant the motion of the counterclaim defendant, Greenpoint Mortgage Funding, Inc. (hereinafter Greenpoint), for summary judgment dismissing the counterclaims asserted against it by the defendant/counterclaim plaintiff Mary M. Lamberti. Greenpoint established its prima facie entitlement to judgment as a matter of law by submitting a stipulation of settlement, entered into in a prior action, which included a release barring the counterclaims at issue here. In opposition, Lamberti failed to raise a triable issue of fact (see Schiller v Guthrie, 102 AD3d 852 [2013]).

Lamberti‘s remaining contentions are without merit. Dillon, J.P., Balkin, Miller and Connolly, JJ., concur.
