1Opinion of the Court

*304Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Richard B. Lowe, III, J.), entered February 4, 2005, which denied plaintiffs motion pursuant to CPLR 5015 (a) (2) and (3) to vacate the judgment entered herein dismissing the complaint, unanimously affirmed, with costs.

Plaintiffs new evidence showing an ex parte communication initiated by plaintiffs attorney with the trial court does not warrant vacatur of the judgment, since the communication, which was made after the trial court had issued its decision to dismiss the action at the close of plaintiffs evidence, did not concern “the merits of the cause”…
