Manfredi Law Group, PLLC, New York, N.Y. (John Manfredi of counsel), for appellant. Leo Salzman, Brooklyn, N.Y., for respondents.
In a proceeding to enforce a money judgment, the petitioner appeals from a decision of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Sunshine, Ct.Atty.Ref), dated January 14, 2014, made after a framed-issue hearing.
ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed, with costs.
The paper from which the petitioner appeals merely constitutes a finding regarding one of the issues raised in this proceeding. As such, it is tantamount to a decision, from which no appeal lies ( see Matter of 21st Century Ins. Co. v. Davis, 114 A.D.3d 955, 980 N.Y.S.2d 821; Matter of AutoOne Ins. Co. v. Fernandez, 109 A.D.3d 469, 969 N.Y.S.2d 918; Benabu v. Rienzo, 104 A.D.3d 714, 961 N.Y.S.2d 482; Wall St. Mtge. Bankers, Ltd. v. Hinds, 81 A.D.3d 818, 916 N.Y.S.2d 528; Hamilton v. Khalife, 2 A.D.3d 682, 768 N.Y.S.2d 626).
