Re: Smith v. GTFM, Inc., et al.
Index No. 120364/05 -
Dear Justice Fried: I
We represent the defendants in the above—referenced action and we write pursuant to
Rule 23 of the Rules of Practice for the Commercial Division.
On December 23, 2005, oral argument was held on plaintitt‘s motion to compel, for
sanctions, and other discovery and on defendants’ cross-motion seeking a protective order,
sanctions, summary judgment and partial summary judgment. By an Order dated December 23,
2005, your Honor decided the parties’ discovery—related motions. However, that portion of
defendants’ cross-motion which sought summary judgment and partial summary judgment was (
not decided. More than 60 days have elapsed since oral argument was conducted on det`endants’ .
cross-motion.
Since discovery is already underway, a decision on defendants’ cross—motion for ,
summary judgment and partial summary judgment would greatly assist the parties and Jl-IO j
Beverly Cohen in resolving any outstanding discovery disputes. Thank you for your courtesy.
Res ectfully yours,
cc: Robert Meloni, Esq. (via e-mail)
