Q: The judge ruled against me in his first order; a few months later the Judge ruled against me again in his second order. Can I appeal these TWO orders in ONE Notice of Appeal? These two orders are correlated with each other. I'll spell out details of each order (such as Date of Entry, etc.) in this one Notice of Appeal. I will have appellate lawyer working on the appeal for me, but I need to file the Notice of Appeal on my own right now because I haven't decided which appellate lawyer to work with, and my time is running out.
The case is in the New York County Supreme Court. Now I need to appeal to the NY Appellate Division. My time to appeal the first order has not expired as I was never served on the first order.
A: David's Answer: It is specifically permitted by Rule in the 2d Dept (
http://www.courts.state.ny.us/courts/ad2/pdf/ru...). The 1st Dept rules don't appear to say anything one way or the other. Thus, it's likely permissible, but you're best advised to call the Clerk's Office of the 1st Dept. to double-check.
