Entenberg v. Goodman
New York Supreme Court
1Opinion of the CourtLatter, J.
This is a motion to enforce an attorney’s lien. The petitioner seeks to have a lien fixed for services rendered in an action which he claims was settled surreptitiously by his client, the plaintiff, and the defendant herein. The petitioner served the petition and notice thereof upon the attorney who appeared for the defendant in the action, who in turn appeared specially on the argument of this motion and contested the petitioner’s claim on the ground that the service of the petition and notice thereof upon him was invalid as against the defendant in the former action.
