ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

The defendants having appealed to this court from an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County, dated March 14, 2003, and having perfected the appeal on November 3, 2003, and no respondent's brief having been filed, the matter was placed on this court's calendar for September 24, 2004.

The stipulation of discontinuance of the action appended to the letter is dated February 4, 2004, and was filed with the Queens County Clerk on June 14, 2004.

Now, on the court's own motion, it is

ORDERED that the parties or their counsel are directed to show cause before this court why an order should or should not be made and entered imposing such sanctions and/or costs, if any, against the parties to the appeal or their respective counsel pursuant to 22 NYCRR 670.2(g) as this court may deem appropriate by each filing an affirmation or affidavit on that issue in the office of the Clerk of this court and serving one copy of the same on all parties to the action on or before October 22, 2004.

Section 670.2(g) of the rules of this court provides, in relevant part, that "[i]f a cause or the underlying action or proceeding is wholly or partially settled * * * or if any cause should not be calendared * * * for some other reason, the parties or their counsel shall immediately notify the court," and "[a]ny attorney or party who, without good cause shown, fails to comply with the requirements of this subdivision shall be subject to the imposition of such costs and/or sanctions as the court may direct" (22 NYCRR 670.2[g]).

The Clerk of this court, or his designee, is directed to serve a copy of this order to show cause upon counsel for the respective parties by regular mail.

Motion by the appellant on both appeals, to consolidate appeals from two orders of the Supreme Court, Queens County, dated February 21, 2003, and April 7, 2004, respectively, and for leave to file a supplemental record on Appeal No. 1 which together with the record already filed on that appeal shall be deemed to be the record on appeal in Appeal No. 2, and cross motion by the respondents to dismiss Appeal No. 2 on the ground that the order dated April 7, 2004, is not appealable as it denies a motion for leave to reargue.

Upon the papers filed in support of the motion and cross motion and the papers filed in opposition thereto, it is

ORDERED that the branch of the motion which is to consolidate the appeals is granted to the extent that the appeals shall be calendared together, and shall be argued or submitted on the same day and that branch of the motion is otherwise denied; and it is further,

ORDERED that the branch of the motion which is to file a supplemental record is granted to the extent that on Appeal No. 2, the appellant may file a record or appendix which need not contain material already contained in the record on Appeal No. 1, and the appellant may refer to the record on Appeal No. 1 in her brief on Appeal No. 2; and it is further,

ORDERED that the cross motion to dismiss Appeal No. 2 on the ground that the order dated April 7, 2004, is not appealable as it denies a motion for leave to reargue is denied without prejudice to raising that issue in the respondents' brief.
