v
Luis R. Delgado, D.M.D., et al., Defendants-Respondents, North Central Bronx Hospital, et al., Defendants.
Krentsel Guzman Herbert, LLP, New York (Marcia K. Raicus of counsel), for appellant.
Fumuso, Kelly, Swart, Farrell, Polin & Christesen LLP, Hauppauge (Scott G. Christesen of counsel), for Luis R. Delgado, D.M.D, respondent.
James E. Johnson, Corporation Counsel, New York (Barbara Graves-Poller of counsel), for New York City Health & Hospitals Corp., respondent.
Appeal from orders, Supreme Court, Bronx County (George J. Silver, J.), entered March 20, 2020, which granted defendants' motions to strike the complaint based on plaintiff's failure to provide court-ordered discovery, unanimously dismissed, without costs, as taken from nonappealable orders.
Plaintiff may not appeal from these orders as they were entered upon his default (CPLR 5511). Plaintiff's proper recourse is to move to vacate his default and, if
necessary, appeal from the denial of that motion (e.g. Squitieri v Kaufman, 193 AD3d 534 [1st Dept 2021]; Kamen v Weithorn, 83 AD3d 560, 561 [1st Dept 2011]).THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER
OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
