14736. ESTATE OF LORETTE JOLLES SHEFNER, ETC. plf-res, v. GALERIE JACQUES DE LA BERAUDIERE, ET AL., def, YVES BOUVIER, def-ap — Storch Amini & Munves PC, New York (John W. Brewer of counsel), for ap — Alston & Bird LLP, New York (Steven L. Penaso of counsel), for res — Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Donna M. Mills, J.), entered November 14, 2013, which, to the extent appealed from, denied defendant Bouvier’s motion to dismiss the first amended complaint as against him, unanimously reversed, on the law, without costs, and the motion granted. The Clerk is directed to enter judgment dismissing the first amended complaint as against Bouvier.

In this action, plaintiffs assert that defendant Bouvier assisted with the fraudulent transfer of a piece of artwork (the de Kooning Piece), which included falsely claiming ownership of the painting, in order to deprive plaintiffs of monies to which they are entitled pursuant to a federal default judgment. The first amended complaint alleges that Bouvier’s claims to ownership are false and that he “has never owned the de Kooning Piece, and presently has no ownership interest in the de Kooning Piece.”
