HERE THE PARTY WHO WAS AWARDED COSTS ON APPEAL WAS ENTITLED TO REIMBURSEMENT OF THE COST OF PROCURING THE TRANSCRIPTS FOR THE RECORD ON APPEAL (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing (modifying) Supreme Court, determined the party who has been awarded costs on appeal is entitled the cost of procuring the transcripts included in the record on appeal:

Pursuant to CPLR 8301(a)(13), a party to whom costs are awarded on appeal is entitled to tax his or her necessary disbursements for “reasonable and necessary expenses as are taxable according to the course and practice of the court, by express provision of law or by order of the court.” Under the circumstances of this case, the defendant was entitled to disbursements for the expense of procuring trial transcripts for the purpose of preparing a record on appeal pursuant to CPLR 8301(a)(13) … . Thandi v Otsego Mut. Fire Ins. Co., 2025 NY Slip Op 01967, Second Dept 4-2-25

Practice Point: Here is a concrete example of what it means to be awarded “costs” after an appeal.
