The Fitzgerald Law Firm, P.C., Yonkers, NY (John M. Daly and James P. Fitzgerald of counsel), for appellant.
Rubin Paterniti Gonzalez Rizzo Kaufman LLP, New York, NY (Jonathan Waldauer of counsel), for respondent.
In an action, inter alia, to recover damages for medical malpractice, the plaintiff appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Linda Kevins, J.), dated February 8, 2023. The order, insofar as appealed from, denied that branch of the plaintiff's motion which was for leave to renew her opposition to the motion of the defendant Reinaldo Figueroa pursuant to CPLR 3211 (a) (8) to dismiss the complaint insofar as asserted against him for lack of personal jurisdiction, which had been granted in an order of the same court dated December 6, 2021.
Ordered that the appeal is dismissed as academic, without costs or disbursements.
The appeal must be dismissed as academic in light of our determination on a related appeal (see Grimes v Figueroa, 238 AD3d 721 [2025] [decided herewith]). LaSalle, P.J., Ford, Voutsinas and Golia, JJ., concur.
