• --Hudson City v. Cohen-- -Practice Area: Appeals -Outcome: Successful in the initial motion and successfully affirmed on appeal -Description: Defendants lost house to foreclosure on default, when their grandson defrauded them, took out mortgages in their name and stole their mail. After prevailing on behalf of the homeowners at the trial court level, wherein defendants were relieved of their default and the referee's deed was vacated, the lender filed an appeal to the 2nd Department. Mr. Paykin represented the defendants in the appeal and after briefs and oral arguments was able to affirm the lower court's decision vacating the default and return the action to an active pre-discovery stage years after the fact.
