ORDERED that the appeal from the order is dismissed, without costs or disbursements, as the order was superseded by the money judgment; and it is further,

ORDERED that the appeal from the money judgment is dismissed as academic, without costs or disbursements, as the money judgment was vacated by a subsequent order of the same court entered February 18, 2016, made upon renewal (see Sakow v Waldman, _____ AD3d _____ [Appellate Division Docket No. 2016-03742; decided herewith]).
