Muldoon v. Mid-Bronx Holding Corp.

New York Supreme Court

Decided January 8, 1941PublishedCited by 3 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtHofstadter, J.

The plaintiffs may not move for summary judgment in an action for a declaratory judgment as such action is not one enumerated in rule 113 of the Rules of Civil Practice. *701(Lederer v. Wise Shoe Company, 276 N. Y. 459.) While the plaintiffs may move for summary relief on the counterclaim of the defendant also for a declaratory judgment, they have not done so on this application. However, there is no substantial dispute of fact raised by the pleadings and the court may rule on the motion and cross-motion (without regard to the moving affidavits) for judgment on the pleadings under rule 112.
