DECISION & ORDER
In an action, inter alia, for an accounting and to cancel a notice of mechanics lien, the defendant Nicholas Spyreas appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Frederick D.R. Sampson, J.), dated January 29, 2021. The order, after a hearing, granted the plaintiffs motion to hold the defendant Nicholas Spyreas in civil contempt of court for his violation of an order of the same court entered September 30, 2019, to impose a sanction upon the defendant Nicholas Spyreas in the sum of $10,000, and to vacate two mechanics liens filed by the defendant Nicholas Spyreas.
ORDERED that the order dated January 29, 2021, is affirmed, with costs.
In an order entered September 30, 2019, the Supreme Court, inter alia, prohibited the defendant Nicholas Spyreas from filing further mechanics liens against the real property which is the subject of this action, without prior leave of court. Nevertheless, Spyreas filed a mechanics lien against the subject real property on August 18, 2020. In an order entered December 3, 2020, the court, inter alia, directed a hearing on that branch of the plaintiffs motion which was to hold Spyreas in civil contempt for violation of the order entered September 30, 2019 (see Christopulos v. Christopulos, 208 A.D.3d 747, 173 N.Y.S.3d 326). On December 14, 2020, Spyreas filed another mechanics lien against the subject real property.
In an order dated January 29, 2021, the Supreme Court, after a hearing, granted the plaintiffs motion to hold Spyreas in civil contempt for violation of the order entered September 30, 2019, to impose a sanction upon Spyreas in the sum of $10,000 for his contemptuous conduct, and to vacate the mechanics liens dated August 18, 2020, and December 14, 2020, respectively. Spyreas appeals. We affirm.
Spyreass contentions that the order on appeal is defective and that the Supreme Court was biased against him are meritless. Contrary to Spyreass further contention, the plaintiff established that he was prejudiced by Spyreass contempt (see Matter of McCormick v. Axelrod, 59 N.Y.2d 574, 583, 466 N.Y.S.2d 279, 453 N.E.2d 508; El–Dehdan v. El–Dehdan, 114 A.D.3d 4, 11, 978 N.Y.S.2d 239, affd 26 N.Y.3d 19, 19 N.Y.S.3d 475, 41 N.E.3d 340).
Spyreass remaining contentions are either improperly raised for the first time on appeal or without merit.
