DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION

2009-1998 D C
M.F. Pottenburgh General Contractor, Respondent, v Gerald Reynolds, Appellant.

Court's own motion to dismiss an appeal from a judgment of the Justice Court of the Town of Hyde Park, Dutchess County, entered December 8, 1999.

ORDERED that the motion is granted and the appeal is dismissed.

No appeal lies from a judgment made upon the default of the appealing party (see CPLR 5511; Matter of Davy v Davy, 75 AD3d 506 [2010]). The proper procedure is for that party to move to vacate the default by formal motion on notice to his adversary and, if necessary, appeal from the order determining the motion to vacate (id.).

ENTER:

Paul Kenny

Chief Clerk
