Lori Joseph Builders, Inc., etc., plaintiff,

v Ana E. Torres, defendant.

(Index No. 53832/2022)

DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION

Purported appeal by Ana E. Torres from an order of the Supreme Court, Dutchess County, dated September 25, 2023. By order to show cause dated May 28, 2025, the parties were directed to show cause before this Court why the purported appeal should or should not be dismissed on the ground that the notice of appeal does not "designate the party taking the appeal, the judgment or order or specific part of the judgment or order appealed from and the court to which the appeal is taken" (CPLR 5515[1]), in the above-entitled action, and/or on the ground that the right of direct appeal from the order terminated upon entry in the above-entitled action of an order and judgment (one paper) of the same court dated November 13, 2024 (see Matter of Aho, 39 NY2d 241).

Now, upon the order to show cause and the papers filed in response thereto, it is

ORDERED that the motion to dismiss the appeal is granted and the appeal is dismissed (CPLR 5515[1]), without costs or disbursements.

DUFFY, J.P., CHRISTOPHER, WARHIT and TAYLOR, JJ., concur.
