Minor v. Combo Stores Co.

In an action, inter alia, for an accounting, the plaintiffs appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Bucaria, J), entered June 15, 2012, which, inter alia, granted the cross motion of the defendants Combo Stores Company, F & S Realty Company, Sons Realty Company, Initial Realty Company, Flatlands Management Company, Queens Syndicate Company, Cambridge V LLC, Quincy V LLC, Victor Vitlin, Janice Sheinberg, and Robert Feinerman, and the separate cross motion of the defendant Shelly Herman, as executrix of the estate of Stephen Cooper-man, for leave to renew their prior motions for summary judgment, which had been denied, in part, in order of the same court dated April 12, 2011, and, upon renewal, granted the defendants’ prior motions for summary judgment. Ordered that the order entered June 15, 2012 is affirmed, with costs. The plaintiffs contend that a certain settlement agreement and release of the parties did not preclude them from seeking, in this action, an accounting that accrues after the date of the release, and thus, the Supreme Court erred in granting the defendants’ cross motions for leave to renew and, upon renewal, granting their prior motions for summary judgment. The plaintiffs’ contentions are raised for the first time on appeal and, thus, are not properly before this Court (see Opalinski v City of New York, 110 AD3d 694, 696 [2013]; Buck Realty of Long Is., Inc. v Elliott, 106 AD3d 768 [2013]; Jamindar v Uniondale Union Free School Dist., 90 AD3d 612, 617 [2011]). Dillon, J.E, Chambers, Hall and Maltese, JJ., concur.
