COHEN v. WALLACE MINCHENBERG, 2003-09477 [2d Dept 4-17-2007

DECISION ORDER

The appeal from the intermediate order must be dismissed because the right of direct appeal therefrom terminated with the entry of judgment in the action ( see Matter of Aho, 39 NY2d 241). The issues raised on the appeal from the order are brought up for review on the appeal from the judgment ( see CPLR 5501[a]).

It is the appellant's obligation to assemble a proper record on appeal. The record must contain all of the relevant papers that were before the Supreme Court ( see CPLR 5526). The record submitted on this appeal renders meaningful appellate review of the Supreme Court's determination virtually impossible. Therefore, dismissal of the appeal from the judgment is the appropriate disposition ( see Allstate Ins. Co. v Vargas, 288 AD2d 309, 310; Singh v Getty Petroleum Corp., 275 AD2d 740; Patel v Patel, 270 AD2d 241, 242).
