Gerald B. Burkhart et al., Respondents, v Robert L. George et al., Defendants, and William J. Seitz, Appellant.
    [644 NYS2d 773]
   The issue before us is whether the appellant was a bona fide purchaser for value. The appellant acquired title to the subject property and recorded his deed after the plaintiffs filed a lis pendens on that property and commenced an action against him and the vendor, asserting their claims to the subject property. Accordingly, the appellant was not a bona fide purchaser for value (see, Morrocoy Marina v Altengarten, 120 AD2d 500). Bracken, J. P., O’Brien, Goldstein and Florio, JJ., concur.
