Metropolitan Plaza WP, LLC v. Goetz Fitzpatrick, LLP

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Louis B. York, *598 J.), entered January 17, 2014, dismissing the complaint, unanimously affirmed, without costs.

The motion court correctly gave collateral estoppel effect to the rulings of the bankruptcy court in a prior proceeding finding deceit and other misconduct by plaintiffs, as well as defendants, and dismissed the complaint pursuant to the doctrine of in pari delicto (see Kirschner v KPMG LLP, 15 NY3d 446, 464 [2010]).

We have considered plaintiffs’ remaining contentions and find them unavailing.
