THE DENIAL OF A MOTION TO RESETTLE WHICH IMPROPERLY SOUGHT THE MODIFICATION OF A SUBSTANTIVE PART OF AN ORDER, AS OPPOSED TO MERELY THE CORRECTION OF A MISTAKE, IS NOT APPEALABLE (THIRD DEPT).

The Third Department determined the denial of the motion to resettle was not appealable and explained the criteria. The motion sought the modification of a substantive part of an order, which is not available pursuant to a motion to resettle:

“‘Resettlement of an order is a procedure designed solely to correct errors or omissions as to form, or for clarification. It may not be used to effect a substantive change in or to amplify the prior decision of the court'” … . “Under established precedent, no appeal lies from the denial of a motion to resettle or clarify a substantive portion of an order” . [The instant] … motion does not seek to amend or clarify the prior order, but seeks to modify a substantive portion of the prior order….  As such, the denial of said motion is not appealable … . Hutchings v Garrison Lifestyle Pierce Hill, LLC, 2020 NY Slip Op 06327, Third Dept 11-5-20
