—[*1] John Ciampoli, County Attorney, Mineola, N.Y. (Karen Hutson of counsel), for appellants.

Meyer, Suozzi, English & Klein, P.C., Garden City, N.Y. (Andrew J. Turro of counsel), for respondent.

In related proceedings pursuant to RPTL article 7 to review the tax assessments of the petitioner's real property for tax years 1994/1995 through 2007/2008, the appeal, as limited by the appellants' brief, is from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Bucaria, J.), entered July 16, 2008, as granted the petitioner's motion to restore the proceeding referable to tax year 1993/1994 to the trial calendar and, in effect, to restore the other proceedings for subsequent tax years to active status.

Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

In or around 1993, the petitioner L & Q Realty Corporation (hereinafter L & Q Realty) commenced a proceeding in the Supreme Court, Nassau County, against the Assessor, Board of Assessors, and the Assessment Review Commission of the County of Nassau (hereinafter collectively the County) pursuant to RPTL article 7 to review the tax assessment for tax year 1993/1994 on certain real property it owns in Freeport (hereinafter the original proceeding). Subsequently, L & Q Realty commenced additional proceedings in the Supreme Court against the County pursuant to RPTL article 7 to review the tax assessments on the subject property for the tax years 1994/1995 through 2007/2008 (hereinafter the subsequent related proceedings).

In the interim, in or around April 1997, L & Q Realty filed a note of issue with respect to the original proceeding. Subsequently, on October 6, 1998, the original proceeding appeared on the trial calendar. On that date, pursuant to certain procedures that former Justice Leo F. McGinity had implemented years earlier in an attempt to reduce the backlog of tax certiorari proceedings on the trial calendar, the original proceeding was removed from the trial calendar so that the County could obtain a preliminary appraisal, after which the parties could try to settle the matter. Thereafter, L & Q Realty's subsequent related proceedings were marked "inactive pre-note."

Ultimately, on or about December 21, 2007, with the parties unable to reach a settlement, L & Q Realty moved to restore the original proceeding to the trial calendar and, in effect, to restore the subsequent related proceedings to active status. The County opposed the restoration of both the original proceeding and the subsequent related proceedings. The Supreme Court granted L & Q Realty's motion [*2]to restore, holding that (1) restoration of the original proceeding to the trial calendar was appropriate since L & Q Realty satisfied the four-prong test for restoring, to the trial calendar, a matter marked "off" the trial calendar pursuant to CPLR 3404 for more than one year, and (2) restoration of the subsequent related proceedings to active status was automatic since the County failed to serve a 90-day notice pursuant to CPLR 3216. We affirm, but for different reasons.

A review of the information on the New York State Unified Court System E-Courts public Web site, of which we take judicial notice (see Kingsbrook Jewish Med. Ctr. v Allstate Ins. Co., 61 AD3d 13, 20 [2009]), reveals that when the original proceeding appeared on the trial calendar in 1998, the Supreme Court marked the case "settled before trial." Accordingly, the original proceeding was not marked "off" or stricken from the trial calendar pursuant to CPLR 3404 (see Long-Waithe v Kings Apparel Inc., 10 AD3d 413, 414 [2004]; Baez v Kayantas, 298 AD2d 416 [2002]; Basetti v Nour, 287 AD2d 126 [2001]). For the reasons set forth in our determination on a companion appeal (see Matter of Transtechnology Corp. v Assessor, 71 AD3d 1034 [2010] [decided herewith]), the Supreme Court correctly granted L & Q Realty's motion to restore the original proceeding to the trial calendar and, in effect, to restore the subsequent related proceedings to active status.
