DECISION & ORDER ON APPLICATION

Application by the appellant pursuant to 22 NYCRR 670.8(d)(2) to enlarge the time to perfect an appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County, dated October 17, 2005.

Upon the papers filed in support of the application and no papers having been filed in opposition thereto, it is

ORDERED that on the court's own motion, the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements, as no appeal lies as of right from an order which directs a hearing to aid in the disposition of a motion (see Bagdy v Progresso Foods Corp., 86 AD2d 589), and we decline to grant leave to appeal; and it is further,

ORDERED that the application is denied as academic.

MILLER, J.P., KRAUSMAN, SPOLZINO and LIFSON, JJ., concur.
