Procedure for Invalidation of a Stipulation to the Record

The Fourth Department noted the criteria for invalidating a stipulation to a record on appeal:

It is undisputed … that plaintiff stipulated to settle the record … prior to seeking leave to reargue or renew and has not sought to be relieved from his stipulation … .  Once plaintiff stipulated to the record on appeal, he was no longer entitled to move to settle the record or, indeed, to seek leave to reargue or renew a motion to settle the record that preceded the stipulation.  “Only where there is cause sufficient to invalidate a contract, such as fraud, collusion, mistake or accident, will a party be relieved from the consequences of a stipulation made during litigation” …, and plaintiff made no such showing here.  Hale v Meadowood Farms of Cazenovia, LLC, et al, 351, CA 12-01192, 4th Dept. 3-22-13
