Civil Procedure, Evidence

COURT PROPERLY RELIED ON UNSIGNED COPIES OF A DEPOSITION TRANSCRIPT BECAUSE DEFENDANT DID NOT RETURN SIGNED COPIES WITHIN 60 DAYS AND DID NOT CHALLENGE THE ACCURACY OF THE TRANSCRIPT (FIRST DEPT).

The First Department noted that the court, in awarding summary judgment to plaintiff, properly relied upon unsigned copies of the transcript of the deposition testimony of defendant’s witness because the defendant failed to return signed copies within 60 days and did not challenge the accuracy of the transcript (CPLR 3116(a)). Shackman v 400 E. 85th St. Realty Corp., 2018 NY Slip Op 03223, First Dept 5-3-18
