In an action to foreclose a mortgage, the plaintiff appeals, as limited by its brief, from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Knipel, J.), dated May 28, 2015, as denied that branch of its motion which was to vacate an order of the same court dated November 12, 2013, conditionally dismissing the action pursuant to CPLR 3216 and to restore the action to the calendar.
ORDERED that the order dated May 28, 2015, is reversed insofar as appealed from, on the law, with costs, and that branch of the plaintiff's motion which was to vacate the order dated November 12, 2013, conditionally dismissing the action pursuant to CPLR 3216 and to restore the action to the calendar is granted.
The plaintiff commenced this action in May 2007 to foreclose a mortgage. The defendants failed to answer, and the plaintiff moved in June 2007 for an order of reference. In February 2008, the Supreme Court granted the plaintiff's motion for leave to enter a default judgment. By order dated November 12, 2013, the court conditionally dismissed the action pursuant to CPLR 3216 unless the plaintiff filed a note of issue or otherwise proceeded by motion for entry of a judgment within 90 days of the order. In October 2014, a special referee issued a report of the amount due and owing. In November 2014, the plaintiff moved, inter alia, to vacate the conditional order of dismissal and to restore the action to the calendar. In an order dated May 28, 2015, the court denied that branch of the plaintiff's motion which was to vacate the November 2013 order and to restore the action to the court calendar. The plaintiff appeals.
