CPLR § 5511

CPLR § 5511 Permissible appellant and respondent

Debcon Fin. Servs., Inc. v 83-17 Broadway Corp., 2009 NY Slip Op 02967 (App. Div., 2nd, 2009)

Finally, we do not address the arguments raised by the defendant
Demetra Sirica in her brief denominated as a "respondent's" brief.
Since her brief contests the Supreme Court's denial of her individual
motions, she cannot appear here as respondent (see CPLR 5511). If, as she claims, [*3]she was not served with a notice of entry of the orders at issue, she "may still timely file a notice of appeal" (Nagin v Long Is. Sav. Bank, 94 AD2d 710, 710).

The appeal from the first order entered November 22, 2006, must
be dismissed as abandoned, as the appellant did not raise any arguments
relating to that order in its brief (see Andre v City of New York, 47 AD3d 605, 606).
