Green Tree Servicing, LLC v Gill, 2021 NY Slip Op 03165 [194 AD3d 913]

May 19, 2021

Appellate Division, Second Department

[*1]

Green Tree Servicing, LLC, Respondent,

v

Wendell O. Gill et al., Defendants, and Marker Real Estate Corp., Appellant.

Avi Rosenfeld, Lawrence, NY, for appellant.

Gross Polowy, LLC, Westbury, NY (Stephen J. Vargas of counsel), for respondent.

In an action to foreclose a mortgage, the defendant Marker Real Estate Corp. appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Timothy J. Dufficy, J.), entered June 6, 2017. The order, insofar as appealed from, granted those branches of the plaintiff’s unopposed motion which were for summary judgment on the complaint insofar as asserted against that defendant, to strike its answer, and for an order of reference.

Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, with costs.

The Supreme Court, in the order appealed from, granted the plaintiff’s unopposed motion, inter alia, for summary judgment on the complaint insofar as asserted against the appellant, to strike its answer, and for an order of reference. The record on appeal contains no evidence that the appellant ever timely opposed the motion. Accordingly, the appellant is precluded from challenging the propriety of that order on appeal ( see CPLR 5511; Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v Harrigan , 179 AD3d 1142 [2020]; Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v Estwick , 160 AD3d 911 [2018]; Messina v City of New York , 147 AD3d 748 [2017]). We therefore dismiss the appeal. Dillon, J.P., Austin, Barros and Iannacci, JJ., concur..
