v Jeffrey Solivan, appellant.

(Ind. No. 191/97)

DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION

Motion by the appellant pro se on an appeal from a purported judgment of the County Court, Orange County, rendered January 2, 2003, for leave to prosecute the appeal from the purported judgment as a poor person, and for the assignment of counsel. By order to show cause dated March 1, 2004, the appellant was directed to show cause why an order should not be entered dismissing the appeal from the purported judgment on the ground that no appeal lies from the purported judgment, as the purported judgment is nothing more than a proceeding to cause a judgment of the same court rendered December 19, 1997, to be brought to execution (see People v Crawford, 239 AD2d 515), and the motion was held in abeyance in the interim.

Upon the papers filed in support of the motion and no papers having been filed in response to the order to show cause, it is

ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed; and it is further,

ORDERED that the motion for poor person relief and the assignment of counsel is denied as academic.
