(File No. 343100/Y)

Appeals from eight orders of the Surrogate's Court, Nassau County, all dated November 14, 2022. Motion by the appellant to stay all proceedings in the above-entitled matters, pending hearing and determination of the appeals, and to consolidate the appeals. Separate motions by the objectants-respondents John J. Barnosky & Alexandre Cassini Belmont, as executors of the estate of Christina Cassini, and as successor administrators of the estate of Daria Cassini, to dismiss each of the appeals on the ground that no appeal lies from the denial of an application to sign an order to show cause (see Khanal v Sheldon, 74 AD3d 894; Matter of Astoria Gas Turbine Power, LLC v Tax Commn. of City of N.Y., 14 AD3d 553; CPLR 5701). Separate motion by the objectant-respondent Public Administrator of Nassau County to dismiss the appeal under Appellate Division Docket No. 2023-00483 on the ground that no appeal lies from the denial of an application to sign an order to show cause (see Khanal v Sheldon, 74 AD3d 894; Matter of Astoria Gas Turbine Power, LLC v Tax Commn. of City of N.Y., 14 AD3d 553; CPLR 5701).

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

ORDERED that the motions to dismiss the appeals on the ground that no appeal lies from the denial of an application to sign an order to show cause are denied; and it is further,

ORDERED that on the Court's own motion, the appeals are dismissed on the ground that no appeal lies as of right from orders that are not the result of a motion made on notice (see CPLR 5701), and leave to appeal has not been granted; and it is further,

ORDERED that the motion to stay all proceedings in the above-entitled matters, pending hearing and determination of the appeals, and to consolidate the appeals is denied as academic.

DUFFY, J.P., CHRISTOPHER, FORD and VOUTSINAS, JJ., concur.
