Klein v. 124-132 White Street, Inc. , 246 N.Y.S.2d 277 ( 1963 )

Per Curiam.

Section 192 (subd. c, par. [2]) of the New York City Civil Court Act does not preclude consideration of a motion to increase the ad damnum clause above $3,000 on the merits, simply because the case was originally instituted in the Municipal Court and transferred automatically. (Cohen v. Bezold, 37 Misc 2d 1081; Dolce v. Cayuga Foundation Corp., 38 Misc 2d 1078.)

The order should be reversed, without costs, and motion remanded for determination on the merits.

Concur — Brown, Gulotta and Croat, JJ.

Order reversed, etc.
