PLAINTIFF DID NOT DEMONSTRATE FRAUD CAUSE OF ACTION WOULD SUCCEED ON ITS MERITS, WARRANT OF ATTACHMENT SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN GRANTED 1ST DEPT.

The First Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined the warrant of attachment should not have been granted. Plaintiff did not demonstrate the fraud cause of action would succeed on its merits:

… [S]tating a cause of action does not equate to a probability of success on the merits. In her moving papers, plaintiff submitted no affidavit or written evidence that [defendant] had committed fraud. Rather, she relied solely on the fact that partial summary judgment had been granted against three other defendants. However, ‘[t]o sustain a warrant of attachment against the property of a defendant, the moving papers must establish both a cause of action and a ground of attachment as to that particular defendant” … . Genger v Genger, 2017 NY Slip Op 05687, 1st Dept 7-13-17
