2025Plaintiff is correct “[d]efendants’ recalcitrant worker defense, predicated on plaintiff’s failure to [stand clear of the excavator], is unavailing, . . . there being no evidence that plaintiff was given an immediate instruction” to do so (Olszewski v Park Terrace Gardens, Inc., 306 AD2d 128, 128-29 [1st Dept 2003]; Vitucci v Durst Pyramid LLC, 205 AD3d 441 , 444 [1st Dept 2022] [defendants “failed to make a showing that plaintiff deliberately refused to obey a direct and immediate instruction to . . . not stand on the edge of the bathtub so as to invoke the recalcitrant worker defense”]).

2017The Family Court’s determination to award custody of the parties’ four children to the father has a sound and substantial basis in the record (see Eschbach v Eschbach, 56 NY2d 167, 173-174 [1982]).

2001The record supports the motion court’s finding that the mother has not willfully interfered with the father’s relationship with the child and that her continued custody of the child is otherwise in the child’s best interests (see, Eschbach v Eschbach, 56 NY2d 167, 173-174 ).

2006We should avoid this dilemma by authorizing an immediate test of the compulsion through prohibition, in the light of the gravity of the possible harm to the individual, the length of time an appeal from a conviction would endure, and the fact that the compulsion may indeed implicate a serious invasion of the individual’s constitutional rights, if not corrected at once.” In support of his motion pursuant to Matter of Abe A. (supra), the District Attorney was required to demonstrate, inter alia, that there was a “clear indication” that relevant material evidence will be found from the requested

1989More recently, this court has held, in the context of a directive that a suspect in a sexual abuse case provide samples of his head and pubic hairs, that "a proceeding in the nature of prohibition is a remedy which may be availed by a suspect who seeks review of a court order directing him to furnish bodily samples to the People” (Matter of William D. v Rohl, 148 AD2d 706, 707 ).

1981Under the circumstances of this case and in view of the serious nature of defendant’s allegations concerning the negotiation and execution of the stipulation of settlement, it was improper for Special Term to have denied her motion on conflicting affidavits without conducting an evidentiary hearing (see Pisano v Pisano, 71 AD2d 670 ; see, also, Christian v Christian, 42 NY2d 63 ).

1979In view of our liberal policy with respect to vacating defaults in matrimonial actions (Levy v Levy, 67 AD2d 998 ; Hewlett v Hewlett, 63 AD2d 977 ), even where only limited relief may be warranted (see, e.g., Rutledge v Rutledge, 60 AD2d 646 ; Rizzo v Rizzo, 50 AD2d 915 ), it is our belief that under the circumstances of this particular case and in view of the serious nature of defendant’s allegations concerning his execution, without the benefit of independent counsel, of the totally one-sided stipulation of settlement (which stipulation was incorporated but not merged into the judgment of di

1994Finally, we reject defendant’s contention that the trial court was obliged either to grant his pro se motion to withdraw his guilty plea or hold an immediate hearing on the voluntariness of his plea, since the court was sufficiently familiar with this defendant and the facts of this case to summarily dispose of defendant’s last-ditch effort to avoid detention (see, People v Dixon, 29 NY2d 55 ).

1994“The nature and extent of the fact-finding procedures prerequisite to the disposition of [plea withdrawal] motions rest largely in the discretion of the Judge to whom the motion is made.” (People v Tinsley, 35 NY2d 926, 927 ; CPL 220.60 [3].) The record reveals that the court both afforded the defendant a reasonable opportunity to advance his claim (supra), and was sufficiently familiar with this defendant and the facts of this case to assess the motion and reject defendant’s belated and conclusory assertions without further inquiry (People v Dixon, 29 NY2d 55 ; People v Richards, 165 AD2d 700
