v
501 Second Street HoldingCorp., Appellant, et al., Defendants. (And a Third-Party Action.)

[*1]Rachel H. Nash, New York, N.Y., for appellant.

Victoria Kennedy, New York, N.Y., for respondent.

In an action to foreclosure a mortgage, the defendant 501 Second Street Holding Corp.appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Knipel, J.), dated October 22, 2010,which (a) denied its motion, denominated as one for leave to renew and reargue, but which was,in actuality, one for leave to reargue its motion pursuant to CPLR 3211 to dismiss the complaintinsofar as asserted against it and the defendant 501 Second Street, LLC, which had been deniedin an order of the same court dated October 2, 2009, and for leave to reargue its opposition to theplaintiff's cross motion for leave to enter a default judgment against it and the defendant 501Second Street, LLC, which had been granted in an order of the same court dated July 30, 2010,and (b) imposed sanctions, pursuant to 22 NYCRR 130-1.1, in the sums of $1,000 and $500against the attorney for the defendants 501 Second Street Holding Corp. and 501 Second Street,LLC, payable to the attorney for the plaintiff and to the Lawyer's Fund for Client Protection,respectively.

Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, with costs.

We agree with the Supreme Court that the appellant's motion, denominated as one for leaveto renew and reargue, was, in actuality, one for leave to reargue its prior motion pursuant toCPLR 3211 to dismiss the complaint insofar as asserted against it and the defendant 501 SecondStreet, LLC, and for leave to reargue its opposition to the plaintiff's cross motion for leave toenter a default judgment against it and the defendant 501 Second Street, LLC. As an orderdenying a motion for leave to reargue is not appealable, the appeal from so much of the order asdenied the motion, which was, in actuality, a motion for leave to reargue, must be dismissed(see CPLR 2221 [d] [2]; [e] [2]; Blackwell v Mikevin Mgt. III, LLC, 88 AD3d 836, 838 [2011]).

The appeal from so much of the order as imposed sanctions upon the appellant's attorney alsomust be dismissed, as the appellant is not aggrieved by that portion of the order (seeCPLR 5511; Scopelliti v Town of New Castle, 92 NY2d 944, 945 [1998]; Zarecki & Assoc., LLC v Ross, 50AD3d 679, 680 [2008]; cf. Matter of Tagliaferri v Weiler, 1 NY3d 605, 606-607[2004]). Dillon, J.P., Florio, Austin and Roman, JJ., concur.
