734 N.Y.S.2d 867

OLGA MORREIRA, Respondent,

v.CITY OF NEW YORK et al., Defendants, and RA GOTTLIEB/SLATTERY ASSOCIATES, Appellant.

Decided December 10, 2001.

S. Miller, J. P., Luciano, Schmidt and Smith, JJ., concur.

Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

The Supreme Court providently exercised its discretion in denying the appellant's motion for summary judgment as untimely (see, CPLR 3212 [a]; Morhart v City of New York, 267 AD2d 438; Caiola v Allcity Ins. Co., 277 AD2d 273; cf., Gonzalez v 98 Mag Leasing Corp., 95 NY2d 124).

The appellant's remaining contentions are without merit.
