Memorandum:
No appeal lies from an order entered on default and thus the appeal must be dismissed ( see, CPLR 5511; Curry v. Roman, 217 A.D.2d 314, 318, lv denied 88 N.Y.2d 804). Although the order does not expressly provide that Supreme Court granted defendants' motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint based on plaintiffs' default, the court stated in its decision on the record that plaintiffs were in default for failing to serve answering papers after three adjournments of the motion. There is no inconsistency between the order, which provides that the dismissal was "on the merits", and the decision. Defendants met their initial burden by submitting proof in admissible form establishing their entitlement to judgment as a matter of law, and plaintiffs failed to respond to the motion ( see, Zuckerman v. City of New York, 49 N.Y.2d 557, 562). Thus, it is not inconsistent to determine both that plaintiffs are in default and that defendants are entitled to summary judgment on the merits. Plaintiffs' remedy is to move to vacate the default judgment ( see, CPLR 5015 [a]; Hines v. Hines, 125 A.D.2d 946; Morse v. Morse, 67 A.D.2d 750).
