Carolyn Schenk , appellant,

v Staten Island University Hospital, et al.,

respondents, et al., defendant.

(Index No. 11938/01)

DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION

Motion by the appellant for leave to prosecute an appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Richmond County, dated May 19, 2008, as a poor person.

Upon the papers filed in support of the motion and the papers 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 from an order entered upon the default of the appealing party (see Marino v Termini, 4 AD3d 342); and it is further,

ORDERED that the motion is denied as academic.

MASTRO, J.P., LIFSON, CARNI and McCARTHY, JJ., concur.

ENTER:

James Edward Pelzer

Clerk of the Court
