v

Celso Paganini, appellant, et al., defendants.




Clair & Gjertsen, White Plains, NY (Lancelot E. Colquitt of counsel), for appellant.

McCalla Raymer Leibert Pierce, LLC, New York, NY (Sean Howland of counsel), for respondent.



DECISION & ORDER

In an action to foreclose a mortgage, the defendant Celso Paganini appeals from (1) an order of the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Sam D. Walker, J.), dated June 30, 2017, and (2) an order of the same court entered January 30, 2018. The order dated June 30, 2017, insofar as appealed from, denied that branch of that defendant's motion which was pursuant to CPLR 5015 to vacate so much of an order of the same court dated April 6, 2012, as determined that the plaintiff had standing to maintain this action. The order entered January 30, 2018, insofar as appealed from, after a framed-issue hearing to determine whether the plaintiff complied with the requirements of RPAPL 1304, in effect, granted those branches of the plaintiff's motion which were for summary judgment on the complaint insofar as asserted against that defendant and for an order of reference.

ORDERED that the appeals are dismissed, without costs or disbursements.

The appeals from the orders must be dismissed because the right of direct appeal therefrom terminated with the entry of an order and judgment of foreclosure and sale in the action (see Matter of Aho, 39 NY2d 241, 248). The issues raised on the appeal from the orders are brought up for review and have been considered on the appeal from the order and judgment of foreclosure and sale (Nationstar Mtge., LLC v Paganini, ___ AD3d ___ [Appellate Division Docket No. 2019-02899; decided herewith]; see CPLR 5501[a][1]; Matter of Aho, 39 NY2d at 248).

RIVERA, J.P., CHAMBERS, MILLER and BRATHWAITE NELSON, JJ., concur.
