DECISION

On the court's own motion, the above-listed appeals are consolidated for purposes of disposition of the present motions.

The branches of the motion by tenant-appellant seeking a stay pending the hearing and determination of Appeal No. 2008-1657 Q C and Appeal No. 2008-1662

Q C are granted and enforcement of the final judgments entered in those proceedings is stayed on condition that tenant-appellant deposit into the court below any and all arrears in rent and/or use and occupancy at the rate previously payable as rent and continue to deposit into the court below use and occupancy at a like rate as the same becomes due and upon the further condition that tenant-appellant perfect the appeal by December 5, 2008.

That branch of the motion by tenant-appellant seeking a stay pending the hearing and determination of Appeal No. 2008-1660 Q C is denied.

On the court's further motion, Appeal No. 2008-1292 Q C, Appeal No. 2008-1661 Q C and Appeal No. 2008-1663 Q C are dismissed as untimely.

On the court's further motion, Appeal No. 2008-1657 Q C, Appeal No. 2008-1660 Q C, and Appeal No. 2008-1662 Q C are consolidated, for purposes of disposition of the appeal, under Appeal No. 2008-1657 Q C.

We note that no possessory judgment was awarded in the proceeding brought up for review under Appeal No. 2008-1660 Q C and that tenant may obtain a stay of said judgment by depositing the amount of the judgment into the court below (see CPLR 5519 [a] [2]). The appeal from the three final judgments, brought up for review under Appeal No. 2008-1292 Q C, Appeal No. 2008-1661 Q C and Appeal No. 2008-1663 Q C, is dismissed as untimely because these final judgments were served with notice of entry on May 19, 2008 and the notice of appeal was not filed until July 3, 2008.
