HSBC BANK USA NATIONAL ASSOCIATION v. KALENBORN (2023)

DECISION & ORDER

In an action to foreclose a mortgage, the defendants Margaret Kalenborn and Douglas Kalenborn appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Thomas F. Whelan, J.), dated June 10, 2020.  The order, insofar as appealed from, (1) denied that branch of their motion which was for a hearing to determine whether sanctions should be imposed upon the plaintiff for failing to negotiate in good faith pursuant to CPLR 3408, and (2) denied that branch of their cross-motion which was for summary judgment dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against them based upon the plaintiff's failure to comply with RPAPL 1304.

ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements.

The appeal from the order must be dismissed because the right of direct appeal therefrom terminated with the entry of the order and judgment of foreclosure and sale in the action (see Matter of Aho, 39 N.Y.2d 241, 248, 383 N.Y.S.2d 285, 347 N.E.2d 647).  The issues raised on the appeal from the order are brought up for review and have been considered on the separate appeal from the order and judgment of foreclosure and sale (see CPLR 5501[a][1];  HSBC Bank USA, N.A. v. Kalenborn, ––– A.D.3d ––––, ––– N.Y.S.3d ––––, 2023 WL 3082984 [Appellate Division Docket No. 2021–06195; decided herewith]).
