ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

2015-2472 Q C
87-10 51st Avenue Owners Corp., Respondent, v Robert Valdes-Clausell, Appellant.

Appeal from a judgment of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Queens County, entered October 2, 2013. During the pendency of the appeal, appellant died. The appeal has been held in abeyance pending substitution of a personal representative of appellant. More than four months having elapsed since notice of the death was given to the court and no motion having been made to dismiss the appeal or to substitute a personal representative in the deceased party's stead, it is, on the court's own motion,

ORDERED that the parties to the appeal, or their attorneys, and the persons interested in the estate of the deceased party thereto show cause before this court pursuant to CPLR 1021, why an order should not be made pursuant to CPLR 1021 dismissing the appeal for failure to effect timely substitution by filing an affidavit or affirmation on that issue with the Clerk of this court on or before March 23, 2018; and it is further,

ORDERED that the Clerk or his designee shall send a copy of this order to show cause to the attorneys for the respective parties and to the attorney who represented the deceased party, as presently set forth in the records of the court's case management database, by regular mail.

Paul Kenny
