Appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Oneida County (Scott J. DelConte, J.), entered September 21, 2022. The order, among other things, granted plaintiff's motion insofar as it sought to preclude certain defendants from offering evidence or arguing at the time of trial that the nonparty providers affiliated with Upstate University Hospital caused or contributed to plaintiff's injuries and from listing the nonparty providers on the verdict sheet.
It is hereby ORDERED that said appeal from the order insofar as it relates to the second, sixth, and seventh ordering paragraphs is unanimously dismissed and the order is modified on the law by denying the motion insofar as it sought to preclude certain defendants from offering evidence or arguing at the time of trial that the nonparty providers affiliated with Upstate University Hospital caused or contributed to plaintiff's injuries and from listing the nonparty providers on the verdict sheet and as modified the order is affirmed without costs.
Same memorandum as in Harris v Rome Mem. Hosp. ([appeal No. 1]
