In the Matter of Eileen Kaplan, et al.,

petitioners-respondents, v Wendy Edwards,

respondent, Raymond Edwards, appellant.

(Docket No. V-6276/84-07)

DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION

Motion by Darren DeUrso, Esq., counsel assigned to represent the appellant by the Family Court, Westchester County, to be relieved, for the assignment of new counsel to prosecute an appeal from an order of the Family Court, Westchester County, dated December 19, 2007, and for leave for the appellant to prosecute the appeal as a poor person.

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

ORDERED that on the court's own motion, the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements, as no appeal lies from an order entered upon the default of the appealing party (see CPLR 5511); and it is further,

ORDERED that the motion is denied as academic.

SKELOS, J.P., ANGIOLILLO, McCARTHY and LEVENTHAL, JJ., concur.

ENTER:

James Edward Pelzer

Clerk of the Court
