De Kovessey v. Coronet Properties Co.

— Order and judgment (one paper), Supreme Court, New York County (Wright, J.), entered August 20, 1985, which granted plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment, enjoined defendants from selling shares allocated to the subject apartment to any person other than plaintiff, tolled the deadline for plaintiff to purchase said shares, and awarded attorney’s fees to plaintiff, modified, on the law, to strike the award of attorney’s fees and, as modified, affirmed, without costs.

We modify the order at Special Term to the extent of striking the award of attorney’s fees, and otherwise affirm.
