Appeal by plaintiff from an order of the Small Claims Part of the Civil Court, Queens County (J. Golia, J.), entered August 7, 2003, which granted on default defendant's motion to dismiss the action due to plaintiff's failure to timely file a notice of claim.
Appeal unanimously dismissed.
No appeal lies from an order entered upon default (CPLR 5511). The remedy of
a party against whom a default order has been entered is to move to vacate the
default (CPLR 5015). Should the motion to vacate be denied, the aggrieved party may then appeal from such denial.
