2014-2316 Q C; 2015-539 Q C. VEERAMUTHU P. GOUNDER, app, v. PROGRESSIVE CREDIT UNION and COMMUNICAR, INC., res — Separate appeals from (1) orders of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Queens County, entered August 15, 2014 (Jodi Orlow, J.) and September 15, 2014 (Ulysses Bernard Leverett, J.) (collectively appeal No. 2014-2316 Q C), and (2) a judgment of the same court entered December 11, 2014 (Jodi Orlow, J.) and orders of the same court entered January 15, 2015 (William A. Viscovich, J.) and January 29, 2015 (Jodi Orlow, J.) (collectively appeal No. 2015-539 Q C). The order entered August 15, 2014, insofar as directly appealed from, granted the branches of a motion by defendant Progressive Credit Union seeking to dismiss so much of the complaint as is against it, and to permanently enjoin plaintiff from commencing any future litigation against defendant Progressive Credit Union without first obtaining leave of the court. The order entered September 15, 2014 denied plaintiff’s motion for, in effect, leave to reargue his opposition to defendant Progressive Credit Union’s prior motion. The judgment, entered pursuant to (a) so much of the August 15, 2014 order as, in effect, granted the branches of the motion by defendant Progressive Credit Union seeking the imposition of costs against plaintiff, pursuant to Rules of the Chief Administrator of the Courts (22 NYCRR) §130-1.1, and to set the matter down for a hearing to determine the costs, expenses and reasonable attorney’s fees that defendant Progressive Credit Union had incurred in defending the action, and (b) an order entered October 28, 2014 (Jodi Orlow, J.), following the hearing, awarded defendant Progressive Credit Union the principal sum of $4,800 as attorney’s fees. The order entered January 15, 2015 granted a motion by defendant Communicar, Inc. to dismiss the complaint insofar as asserted against it. The order entered January 29, 2015 denied plaintiff’s motion for an order to compel discovery.
ORDERED that, on the court’s own motion, (1) the portion of the notice of appeal that is from so much of the order entered August 15, 2014 as, in effect, granted the branches of the motion by defendant Progressive Credit Union seeking the imposition of costs against plaintiff pursuant to Rules of the Chief Administrator of the Courts (22 NYCRR) §130-1.1 and to set the matter down for a hearing to determine the costs, expenses and reasonable attorney’s fees that defendant Progressive Credit Union had incurred in defending the action, and (2) the notice of appeal from the order entered October 28, 2014, are deemed a premature notice of appeal from the judgment entered December 11, 2014 (see CPLR 5520 [c]); and it is further,
