Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York·Decided August 27, 2014·No. 2013-00631·Published

Opinion

In a claim to recover damages for *797 unjust conviction and imprisonment pursuant to Court of Claims Act § 8-b, the claimant appeals from an order of the Court of Claims (Marin, J.), dated November 14, 2012, which denied his motion to admit into evidence an affidavit of a recanting witness.

Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, with costs.

The appeal must be dismissed because it concerns an evidentiary ruling which, even when made in advance of trial on motion papers, is neither appealable as of right nor by permission (see CPLR 5701; Elliott v Guervil, 98 AD3d 470 [2012]; Cotgreave v Public Adm’r of Imperial County [Cal.], 91 AD2d 600, 601 [1982]).

Balkin, J.P, Leventhal, Maltese and LaSalle, JJ., concur.
