Diana VAN DYKE, Plaintiff, v. 20 EAST 4TH ST. LLC, S Realty Inc., and S Realty & Management LLC, Defendants.
The following paper numbered 1 was read on this motion:
Paper Number
Notice of Motion, Affirmations and Exhibits 1
Plaintiff brings her motion for a default seeking an inquest on damages in this case arising out of a personal injury. Plaintiff states that she was in an apartment owned by defendants when the ceiling collapsed on her, causing her injuries. She does not say what these injuries are, or how much compensation she seeks.
Despite proper service of the summons and complaint and this motion, defendants failed to file an answer or any opposition.
As there is no reason to deny the motion, it is granted. In future, counsel shall submit a proposed Order with similarly unopposed motions. Plaintiff shall send a copy of this Decision and Order to defendants by overnight mail within two business days of receipt.
The action will be referred to the Trial Assignment Part so that that Part can assign a date for the inquest.
The foregoing constitutes the decision and order of the Court.
Linda S. Jamieson, J.
