NOTICE OF CROSS MOTION DID NOT INCLUDE THE RELIEF SOUGHT OR THE GROUNDS FOR RELIEF AS REQUIRED BY CPLR 2214 (a), CROSS MOTION PROPERLY DISMISSED (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department determined Supreme Court properly dismissed a cross-motion for failure to specify the relief sought and the grounds for relief as required by CPLR 2214 (a):

CPLR 2214(a) provides that a notice of motion shall “specify the time and place of the hearing on the motion, the supporting papers upon which the motion is based, the relief demanded and the grounds therefor” … . Here, the Supreme Court providently exercised its discretion in denying the plaintiff’s cross motion on the ground that the plaintiff’s notice of cross motion was deficient … . The plaintiff’s notice of cross motion failed to sufficiently specify the relief sought, against whom it was sought, and the grounds therefor … . Although the plaintiff’s supporting papers supplied the missing information, a court is not required to comb through a litigant’s papers to find information that is required to be set forth in the notice of motion … . Abizadeh v Abizadeh, 2018 NY Slip Op 01892, Second Dept 3-21-18
