3364-3365NA. JAIME ALBERTO MEJIA-GONZALEZ, Plaintiff-res-ap, v. OLIVER S. STORCH, Defendant-Appellant-res — DeToffol & Associates, New York (David J. DeToffol of counsel), for appellant-res — Leon I. Behar, P.C., New York (Leon I. Behar of counsel), for res-res — Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Ellen M. Coin, J.), entered August 8, 2013, which, to the extent appealed from as limited by the briefs, denied plaintiff’s motion for partial summary judgment on liability and to dismiss defendant’s affirmative defenses and counterclaim, and ruled that defendant must bear the cost of either traveling to depose plaintiff or conducting the deposition by video conference, unanimously modified, on the law, to grant the motion as to the second defense, and otherwise affirmed, without costs. Order, same court and Justice, entered September 3, 2013, which, to the extent appealed from, denied plaintiff’s motion to seal certain documents, unanimously affirmed, without costs. Order, same court and Justice, entered on or about July 22, 2015, which granted defendant’s motion for partial summary judgment dismissing plaintiff’s request for punitive damages, and denied defendant’s motion for reargument of so much of his motion for summary judgment as sought dismissal of the complaint based on judicial estoppel, unanimously reversed, on the law, with respect to defendant’s motion to dismiss the request for punitive damages, and that motion denied, and the appeal therefrom otherwise dismissed, without costs, as taken from a nonappealable order.
The order denying defendant’s motion for reargument is not appealable (see e.g. Fontanez v. St. Barnabas Hosp., 24 AD3d 218 [1st Dept 2005]). Defendant’s claim that he actually moved for renewal is without merit.
