In an action to recover on a dishonored check, commenced pursuant to CPLR 3213 by a motion for summary judgment in lieu of complaint, the defendants appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Lonschein, J.), dated July 14, 1994, which, after a hearing at which the defendants failed to appear, is in favor of the plaintiff and against them in the principal sum of $3,454.
Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, with costs.
