The plaintiff subsequently commenced this action against the Abruzzos and another defendant, inter alia, to recover the $20,000 security deposit. The complaint asserted a cause of action to recover damages for an alleged violation of General Obligations Law § 7-108(1-a)(e). Following their receipt of the complaint, the Abruzzos wired the plaintiff's attorney $15,438.52, reflecting the undisputed portion of the security deposit, leaving only the remaining $4,561.48 in dispute. The defendants thereafter moved, inter alia, for summary judgment dismissing the cause of action alleging a violation of General Obligations Law § 7-108(1-a)(e) insofar as asserted against [*2]the Abruzzos. In an order dated June 21, 2022, the Supreme Court, among other things, granted that branch of the defendants' motion. The plaintiff appeals.
