Re: Delgado v. Rojas; Index No. 601610/2015
Dear Justice Muraca:
I am counsel for Maria Delgado, the plaintiff-judgment creditor in this matter.
I write to urge you to decline the proposed Order to Show Cause (NYSCEF# 62) filed
yesterday by the defendant-judgment debtor, in which he seeks to vacate the
Judgment entered against him in 2016
This proposed motion comes on the back of the judgment debtor's
withdrawal yesterday of his prior motion, filed in August 2022, challenging the
judgment. After that motion was filed, the judgment debtor, as instructed by this
Court, filed an application in Bankruptcy Court to obtain a ruling there on his claims.
The Bankruptcy Court thereafter reopened the case, In re: Nelson Enrique Rojas,
Case No. 8-17-71674-AST, Docket Entry 59, and allowed the parties to file additional
papers.
On April 18, 2023, the Bankruptcy Court, after reviewing submissions from
the parties and hearing oral argument, denied the debtor's application in its
entirety. The Court's docket entry reads: "Court to enter Order denying motion to
case."
avoid lien and closing bankruptcy Copies of the relevant pages from the
Bankruptcy Court's docket, with the entry relating to the Court's decision circled,
are attached as Exhibit A.
The same argument now made by the judgment debtor in this Court for
the Judgment- that the Judgment is void under law because

the inquest in this case was held days before a prior Bankruptcy Court case was
dismissed-was made by the deptor in Bankruptcy Court. See highlighted section in
Declaration of Ronald Weiss Law Offices dated October 20, 2022, Bankruptcy Court
Docket Entry #50, Exhibit B hereto. This argument was rejected by the Bankruptcy
Court and cannot be re-litigated here. The debtor's.remedy is an appeal of the
Bankruptcy court's ruling, not an application in this Court making the same failed
arguments.

We respectfully request that the Order to Show Cause be declined.
Very truly yours,
