On the parties' cross appeals, the Appeals Court dismissed
the tenants' appeal on timeliness ground. We granted further
appellate review to consider whether a motion, pursuant to Mass.
R. Civ. P. 59, served before the entry of final judgment, is
timely for purposes of Mass. R. App. P. 4 (a), as amended, 464
Mass. 1601 (2013). We conclude that it is. We also conclude
that the summary process complaint must be dismissed because it
was served within the fourteen-day period after receipt of the
notice to quit. We find no error in the Housing Court judgment
with respect to the counterclaims, and affirm that portion of
the judgment.
