DEFENDANT ALLEGED HE WAS NOT SERVED WITH THE SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT WITHIN 120 DAYS OF FILING AND PLAINTIFF DID NOT FILE AN AFFIDAVIT OF SERVICE WITH THE CLERK, DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO DISMISS FOR LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION PROPERLY GRANTED (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department determined defendant’s motion to dismiss the complaint for lack of personal jurisdiction was properly granted. Defendant alleged he was not served with the summons and complaint within 120 days of filing and plaintiff had not filed an affidavit of service with the clerk of the court:

While the failure to timely file an affidavit of service with the clerk of the court as required by CPLR 308(4) may, in the absence of prejudice, be corrected by court order pursuant to CPLR 2004 … , in this case, the plaintiff failed to seek such relief, and the Supreme Court declined to extend this time sua sponte … . Accordingly, we agree with the court’s determination to grant that branch of his motion which was pursuant to CPLR 3211(a)(8) to dismiss the complaint insofar as asserted against him on the ground of lack of personal jurisdiction … . Zheleznyak v Gordon & Gordon, P.C., 2019 NY Slip Op 06536, Second Dept 9-11-19
