Beigel v. Cohen

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Feb 13, 1990
158 A.D.2d 339 (N.Y. App. Div. 1990)

Opinion

February 13, 1990

Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (David Saxe, J.).


CPLR 3217 (b) permits the court to grant a motion for voluntary discontinuance "upon terms and conditions, as the court deems proper." Determination of such a motion is in the court's sound discretion (Tucker v Tucker, 55 N.Y.2d 378, 383) and it was not an abuse of discretion to condition plaintiffs' relief on their payment of defendants' legal fees, costs, and disbursements under the circumstances of this case.

Concur — Kupferman, J.P., Carro, Milonas, Ellerin and Rubin, JJ.
