DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION

Motion by the respondent-appellant, inter alia, to strike pages 1394 through 1606 of the record on an appeal and a cross appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County, dated October 13, 2017, on the ground that they contain matter dehors the record or, in the alternative, to remit the matter to the Supreme Court, Kings County, for a determination as to whether those papers were considered in determining the motion and cross motion in the order dated October 13, 2017. Separate motion by the respondent-appellant to enlarge the time to serve and file a brief.

Upon the papers filed in support of the motion, inter alia, to strike pages 1394 through 1606 of the record and the papers filed in opposition thereto, and upon the papers filed in support of the motion to enlarge the respondent-appellant's time to serve and file a brief and no papers having been filed in opposition or in relation thereto, it is

ORDERED that the branch of the motion which is to strike pages 1394 through 1606 of the record is granted and on or before November 2, 2018, the appellants-respondents shall remove pages 1394 through 1606 from the copies of the record filed with the Clerk of the Court, and the motion is otherwise denied; and it is further,

ORDERED that the separate motion to enlarge the time to serve and file a brief is granted, the respondent-appellant's time to serve and file a brief is enlarged until December 3, 2018, and the answering brief, including the points of argument on the cross appeal (see 22 NYCRR 1250.9[f][1][iv]), shall be served and filed on or before that date.
