DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION

2011-1519 W C
Paula Redd Zemar, Respondent, v Sophia A. Rutty and Larry E. Kinnard, Appellants.

Motion by appellants for a stay pending the determination of an appeal from a final judgment of the Justice Court of the Town of Greenburgh, Westchester County, entered May 5, 2011, and to vacate a default judgment.

ORDERED, on the court's own motion, that the appeal is dismissed, as no appeal lies from a judgment entered upon the default of the appealing party (see CPLR 5511; Matter of Davy v Davy, 75 AD3d 506 [2010]); and it is further,

ORDERED that the branch of the motion seeking a stay is denied as moot; and it is further,

ORDERED that the branch of the motion seeking to vacate the final judgment entered May 5, 2011 is denied, as the proper procedure is for a defaulting party to move to vacate his or her default in the Justice Court and, if necessary, appeal from the order determining the motion to vacate (see Matter of Davy v Davy, 75 AD3d 506 [2010]).
