Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, 1996

Fuentes v. Lerman

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided June 24, 1996

228 A.D.2d 643; 644 N.Y.2d 995; 644 N.Y.S.2d 995; 1996 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 7440

Opinion of the Court

*644It is well settled that no appeal lies from an order entered upon the default of the appealing party (see, CPLR 5511; Matter of Paulucci v Baer, 215 AD2d 662; Murphy v Murphy, 212 AD2d 583; Kelly v Long Is. Coll. Hosp., 199 AD2d 244). The plaintiffs’ failure to appear at the certification conference constituted a default, and the proper procedure to challenge the dismissal is a motion to vacate the default (see, Kelly v Long Is. Coll. Hosp., supra). O’Brien, J. P., Ritter, Pizzuto and Altman, JJ., concur.
