CONCEPCION v. TALON REALTY CORP

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.
Feb 8, 1999

Ordered that the order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

Pursuant to CPLR 317, relief from a default judgment may be obtained upon a showing that the defendant did not receive actual notice of the summons in time to defend, and has a meritorious defense ( see, CPLR 317; Eugene Di Lorenzo, Inc. v. Dutton Lbr. Co., 67 N.Y.2d 138; Mann-Tell Realty Corp. v. Cappadora Realty Corp., 184 A.D.2d 497, 498). The defendant established that service of process was made by a method other than personal delivery pursuant to CPLR 308 N.Y.C.P.L.R. (1) or (3), that it did not receive actual notice of the summons in time to defend ( see, Fleetwood Park Corp. v. Jerrick Waterproofing Co., 203 A.D.2d 238, 239; National Bank v. Grasso, 79 A.D.2d 871), and that it has a meritorious defense ( see, Anamdi v. Anugo, 229 A.D.2d 408).

Mangano, P. J., Joy, Friedmann and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
