Michael Sureda, appellant,

v Peter Maroulis, respondent.

(Index No. 5945/10)

DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION

Motion by the appellant on an appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Dutchess County, dated August 18, 2010, to "reopen [and] overturn Index No. 2883/1997," for "sanctions [and] damages," for leave to prosecute the appeal as a poor person, and for the assignment of counsel.

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, on the ground that no appeal lies from an order that does not affect a substantial right of the parties (see CPLR 5701[a][2][v]), and we decline to grant leave to appeal; and it is further,

ORDERED that the motion is denied as academic.

SKELOS, J.P., DICKERSON, ENG and LOTT, JJ., concur.

Clerk of the Court
