Ordered that the plaintiffs are awarded one bill of costs.
Upon our review of the record, we agree with the Supreme Court that the appellant's failure to appear for a deposition, despite two previous court orders compelling it to do so, was willful and contumacious. Thus, the Supreme Court properly struck the appellant's answer (see, CPLR 3126; Arnoff v. Lorio, 208 A.D.2d 581; Fucci v. Fucci, 166 A.D.2d 551). Thompson, J.P., Miller, O'Brien, Santucci and Joy, JJ., concur.
