GARY JELICKS, ET AL., appellants, v. SHAKIRA CAMACHO, respondent.

ORDERED that the appeals are dismissed, with costs.

It is well settled that a litigant may not raise any issue on a subsequent appeal that was raised, or could have been raised, on an earlier appeal which was dismissed for lack of prosecution (see, Bray v. Cox, 38 N.Y.2d 350). Here, the plaintiffs appealed from a prior order of the Supreme Court, Richmond County, dated October 12, 2000, which granted the defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint on the ground that the injured plaintiff did not sustain a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5102(d). That appeal (Appellate Division Docket No. 2000-10238) was dismissed by decision and order of this court dated May 30, 2001, for failure to prosecute. The dismissal for lack of prosecution bars the instant appeal which raises issues which could have been raised on the prior appeal (see, Rubeo v. National Grange Mut. Ins. Co., 93 N.Y.2d 750; Bray v. Cox, supra).

Moreover, the appeal from the order dated July 5, 2001, must be dismissed as no appeal lies from an order denying a motion for reargument (see, Weissberger v. Ashikari, 278 A.D.2d 409).

FLORIO, J.P., S. MILLER, FRIEDMANN, ADAMS and PRUDENTI, JJ., concur.
