NO INTERLOCUTORY APPEAL FROM DENIAL OF A CIVIL MOTION MADE IN THE CONTEXT OF A CRIMINAL PROCEEDING.

The First Department determined the denial of a civil motion seeking discovery (letters rogatory) oversees which was made in the context of a criminal proceeding could not be the subject of an interlocutory appeal:

In this matter where an indictment has been filed, a criminal trial is pending, and defendants seek information via letters rogatory for use at their criminal trial, the denial of the application for such letters is part of the criminal proceeding, notwithstanding that the application was brought under CPLR 3108 … .

“It is well established that no appeal lies from a determination made in a criminal proceeding unless specifically provided for by statute”  … . The order appealed from is not a disposition listed in CPL 450.10 or 450.15, and is therefore not an appealable paper … . A “defendant may only appeal after conviction” … , and may not obtain an interlocutory appeal by claiming to invoke the court’s civil jurisdiction. People v DePalo, 2017 NY Slip Op 01441, 1st Dept 2-23-17
