    James Cronin, Appellant, v Hudson Chelsea Associates, LLC, et al., Respondents, et al., Defendants. (And a Third-Party Action.)
    [892 NYS2d 422]
   The Supreme Court denied the plaintiffs first motion, in effect, to vacate a prior order of the same court dated December 17, 2007, which had granted the motion of the defendants Hudson Chelsea Associates, LLC, Mandelbaum 23rd Street, LLC, the Kimmel Family 23rd Street, LLC, and Mondanock Construction, Inc., for summary judgment dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against them on the ground that the plaintiff had failed to serve and file a timely response to the summary judgment motion, as previously directed by the court. The plaintiffs second motion, which was denominated as one pursuant to CPLR 2221 to vacate, was identical to the first motion to vacate, and, thus, in actuality, was a motion for leave to reargue (see Cunningham v Diers, 14 AD3d 528, 529 [2005]; Agayeva v KJ Shuttle Serv., 284 AD2d 488 [2001]; Cangro v Cangro, 272 AD2d 286 [2000]; Mucciola v City of New York, 177 AD2d 553, 554 [1991]). Accordingly, the appeal must be dismissed, as no appeal lies from an order denying leave to reargue (see Cunningham v Diers, 14 AD3d at 529; Syed v Fedor, 302 AD2d 451 [2003]; Lopez v Lincoln Appliances, Bedding & Furniture, 300 AD2d 451, 452 [2002]). Dillon, J.P., Miller, Eng, Hall and Sgroi, JJ., concur.
