Provencal, LLC v Tower Ins. Co. of N.Y.

Appellate Division, Second Department

April 6, 2016

2016 NY Slip Op 02643 [138 AD3d 732]

Published by New York State Law Reporting Bureau pursuant to Judiciary Law § 431. As corrected through Wednesday, June 1, 2016

The Provencal, LLC, Respondent,
v
Tower Insurance Company of New York et al., Appellants.

Mound Cotton Wollan & Greengrass, New York, NY (Kevin F. Buckley and Daniel M. O‘Connell of counsel), for appellants.

Bleakley, Platt & Schmidt, LLP, White Plains, NY (Susan E. Galvao of counsel), for respondent.

In an action, inter alia, to recover damages for breach of an insurance contract, the defendants appeal, as limited by their brief, from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Rockland County (Berliner, J.), dated December 5, 2013, as denied their motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.

Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, with costs.

The appeal from the order must be dismissed because the right of direct appeal therefrom terminated with the entry of the judgment in the action (see Matter of Aho, 39 NY2d 241, 248 [1976]). Although the issues raised on the defendants’ appeal from the order are brought up for review on the separate appeal by the plaintiff from the judgment (see CPLR 5501 [a] [1]; Provencal, LLC v Tower Ins. Co. of N.Y., 138 AD3d 732 [2016] [decided herewith]), those issues have been rendered academic in light of our determination of the appeal from the judgment. Leventhal, J.P., Miller, Maltese and Duffy, JJ., concur.
