FAILURE TO ATTACH PLEADINGS TO A MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT PROPERLY DISREGARDED BY THE MOTION COURT (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department noted that plaintiff's failure to attach the pleadings to plaintiff's motion for summary judgment was not a fatal defect:

The defendants' contention that the plaintiff's failure to annex the pleadings to its motion papers was a fatal defect is without merit. CPLR 3212(b) requires, inter alia, that a moving party support its motion for summary judgment by attaching a copy of the pleadings. However, CPLR 2001 permits a court, at any stage of an action, to disregard a party's mistake, omission, defect, or irregularity if a substantial right of a party is not prejudiced … . Here, the pleadings were not only electronically filed and available to the Supreme Court and the parties, but the answer was submitted by the defendants in opposition to the motion, and the summons and complaint were submitted in reply by the plaintiff. The defendants did not assert that they were prejudiced by the omission. Under such circumstances, the court properly disregarded the plaintiff's omission … . Sensible Choice Contr., LLC v Rodgers, 2018 NY Slip Op 05790, Second Dept 8-15-18
