Appeals

A NYC attorney representing a plaintiff in an action involving the breach of a real estate contract sought Lisa’s help responding to a complicated appeal — very late in the game. The attorney agreed with Lisa’s strategic recommendation to seek summary judgment in the appellate court, even though the plaintiff did not seek that relief in the court below, since it was supported by the record. While the appeal was pending, and also on very short notice, Lisa drafted opposition papers that convinced the appellate court to defer a decision on the defendant’s motion to vacate a notice of pendency against the property until the merits of the appeal could be addressed.
