TUFF RUMBLE MANAGEMENT INC v. Hy Shore, Non-Party Appellant. (1999)

Supreme Court, Appellate Division, First Department, New York.

TUFF & RUMBLE MANAGEMENT, INC., Plaintiff-Respondent, v. LANDMARK DISTRIBUTORS, INC., Defendant. Hy Shore, Non-Party Appellant.

Decided: June 22, 1999

NARDELLI, J.P., WILLIAMS, TOM, WALLACH and ANDRIAS, JJ.

Hy Shore, Pro Se.

Resettled order, Supreme Court, New York County (Beatrice Shainswit, J.), entered December 5, 1997, which granted plaintiff's motion to hold non-party outgoing attorney Shore in contempt of court for failing to turn over client files pursuant to court order, unanimously affirmed, with costs.

The IAS court had jurisdiction to issue the subject resettled order holding non-party outgoing attorney Shore in contempt of court for failing to turn over client files in accordance with a prior order of the same court and Justice, since the original order holding Shore in contempt for such conduct was validly entered prior to the termination of the litigation in which the flouted turnover order was issued. The resettled contempt order did not vary from the original contempt order in any presently relevant way.
