Plaintiff, JAMES MORAN, commenced this action on August 26, 2014 by filing a
Summons with Notice with the Nassau County Clerk. The matter arose from the Plaintiff's
allegations that Grand Slam Ventures, LLC, its employees, servants, representatives, agents,
contractors, subcontractors and/or assigns illegally, improperly, extrajudicially, forcibly and
intentionally broke into the premises located at 219 Hempstead Turnpike, West Hempstead,
New York 11552 and removed Plaintiff's personal property therefrom without the Plaintiffs

\
consent or a court order allowing them to do so. Plaintiff sought treble damages pursuant to
RPAPL §853, and that punitive damages are warranted because the actions by Grand Slam
Ventures, LLC were willful, wanton and in reckless disregard to the Plaintiff's rights.
By Order of the Court dated February 17, 2016 Plaintiff was granted a default judgment
as to the issue of liability and the matter was set down for an inquest to determine Plaintiff's
damages.
On March 17, 2016, Notice of Entry of the Court's February 17, 2016 Order, Note of
Issue and Certificate of Readiness were filed with the Court and served upon defendant Grand
