DECISION & ORDER
Appeals from an order of the Family Court, Westchester County (Arlene E. Katz, J.), dated June 22, 2016. The order, insofar as appealed from, denied that branch of the mother's application which was to stay enforcement of an order of that court dated April 1, 2016. Assigned counsel for the father has submitted a brief in accordance with Anders v California (386 US 738), in which he moves for leave to withdraw as counsel for the father.
ORDERED that the appeals are dismissed as academic, without costs or disbursements; and it is further,
ORDERED that counsel's application to be relieved of the assignment to prosecute the appeal by the father is denied as academic.
The order dated June 22, 2016, which, inter alia, denied that branch of the mother's application which was to stay enforcement of an order dated April 1, 2016, has been superseded by a subsequent order of fact-finding and disposition entered September 1, 2017. Accordingly, the appeals by the mother and the father from the order dated June 22, 2016, must be dismissed as academic (see Matter of Bruce P., 138 AD3d 864, 864; Matter of Julian S. [Patricia L.], 121 AD3d 796, 797-798; Matter of Anthony C. [Juan C.], 99 AD3d 798, 799; Matter of Araynnah B. [Moshammett R.], 71 AD3d 881, 881).
We therefore deny, as academic, the application of the father's counsel to be relieved of the assignment to prosecute the father's appeal from the order dated June 22, 2016 (see Matter of Kaci C. [John C.], 136 AD3d 674, 674-675; Matter of McMillian v Rizzo, 65 AD3d 689, 689).
