v Glenwall Hugh Richards, respondent,

et al., defendants.

(Index No. 68810/17)

DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION

Motion by the respondent to dismiss an appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Westchester County, dated June 14, 2019, on the ground that the right of direct appeal from the order terminated upon entry of a judgment of the same court dated July 24, 2019. Separate motion by the appellant pursuant to CPLR 5520(c) to deem the notice of appeal from the order to be a premature notice of appeal from the judgment.

Upon the papers filed in support of the motions and the papers filed in opposition thereto, it is

ORDERED that the respondent's motion is denied; and it is further,

ORDERED that the appellant's motion is granted, and the notice of appeal from the order is deemed to be a premature notice of appeal from the judgment (see CPLR 5520[c]).

SCHEINKMAN, P.J., MASTRO, CHRISTOPHER and WOOTEN, JJ., concur.
