New York Consolidated Laws, Civil Practice Law and Rules - CVP § 6001. Kinds of provisional remedies;  when remedy available to defendant

The provisional remedies are attachment, injunction, receivership and notice of pendency.  On a motion for a provisional remedy, the plaintiff shall state whether any other provisional remedy has been secured or sought in the same action against the same defendant, and the court may require the plaintiff to elect between those remedies to which he would otherwise be entitled;  for this purpose, seizure of a chattel in an action to recover a chattel is a provisional remedy.  A cause of action contained in a counterclaim or a cross-claim, and a judgment demanded thereon, shall entitle the defendant to the same provisional remedies to which he would be entitled if he were the plaintiff, the party against whom the judgment is demanded were the defendant and the cause of action were contained in a complaint.
