DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the appeal from so much of the order entered September 17, 1998, as granted the motion of the plaintiff in Matter No. 2 to dismiss the appellant's counterclaim is dismissed as abandoned (see, Lamphear v. State of New York, 91 A.D.2d 791 ); and it is further,
ORDERED that the appeal from so much of the order entered September 17, 1998, as denied the motion of ZMK Realty Co. to dismiss the appellant's cross claim in Matter No. 2 is dismissed, as the appellant is not aggrieved by that portion of the order (see, CPLR 5511); and it is further,
ORDERED that the order entered September 22, 1998, is reversed, on the law, and the matter is remitted to the Supreme Court, Nassau County, for entry of a judgment pursuant to CPLR 7514; and it is further,
ORDERED that the appellant is awarded one bill of costs.
We agree with appellant's contention that the Supreme Court improvidently exercised its discretion in refusing to entertain his submission of a proposed judgment for signature, and by declaring nunc pro tunc that its prior order dated November 6, 1997, confirming an arbitration award constituted an "order and judgment" (see, CPLR 7514). The time limit for the submission of a proposed judgment for signature contained in 22 NYCRR 202.48 was not applicable in this case (see, Funk v. Barry, 89 N.Y.2d 364 ).
