Respondents Mark J.

Now, upon reading and filing the affidavit of Sherry R. Bruce, Esq., sworn to January 7, 2013, and the notice of motion with proof of service thereof,
It is hereby ORDERED that the motion insofar as it seeks to dismiss the appeal for failure to serve timely the appeal is denied (see Matter of Reynolds v Dustman, 1 NY3d 559, 561), and
It is further ORDERED that the motion insofar as it seeks to dismiss the appeal for failure to perfect timely the appeal is dismissed as premature (see 22 NYCRR 1000.12 [a]).
