Ali Yusuf, on Behalf of Himself and All Other Persons Similarly Situated, Respondent, v City of New York et al., Appellants.
[929 NYS2d 858]

The motion court correctly applied our prior holding ( 309 AD2d 721 [2003]) that the judgment was improperly augmented by additional fees in calculating poundage. Defendants have not advanced any basis for departing from that decision; their reliance on a regulation in the New York City Marshals Handbook is misplaced, as it does not apply to sheriffs, whose fees are governed by CPLR 8012 (b) (1).
