Joseph v. Simmons, 114 A.D.3d 644 (2d Dept 2014)

Plaintiff’s action was dismissed on default. Plaintiff’s motion to renew was granted, and the action reinstated. On appeal, the Appellate Division reversed.
“A motion for leave to renew must be based upon new facts, not offered on the prior motion, that would change the prior determination, and the party seeking renewal must have a “reasonable justification” for the failure to present such facts on the original motion… “A motion for leave to renew is not a second chance freely given to parties who have not exercised due diligence in making their first factual presentation””. Here, the Appellate Division found plaintiffs failed to provide any justification for why their new facts were not presented previously.
