Second Department Finds Queens County Judge Went to Far

In Strocchia v. Celentano Provisions, Inc., after holding that the Supreme Court erroneously sua sponte dismissed the complaint, the Second Department noted that the Supreme Court judge's continuous and wrongful interjections into the trial proceedings were improper requiring remittal to a different justice.  This is now the ninth time involving this judge that the Appellate Division has reversed and remitted the matter to a different justice.
