It is hereby ORDERED that the motion insofar as it seeks to consolidate the appeals is dismissed as unnecessary (see 22 NYCRR 1250.9[f][3]),and

It is further ORDERED that the motion insofar as it seeks to vacate the dismissal of appeal No. 1 (CA 22-01627) is granted on the condition that the appeal is perfected on or before July 17, 2023, and

It is further ORDERED that respondent's cross motion to dismiss appeal No. 2 (CA 22-01888) as untimely is denied on the ground that the cross motion failed to establish that the appeal was untimely taken.
