     Appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Monroe County (J.
Scott Odorisi, J.), entered June 16, 2014 in a personal injury action.
The order, among other things, denied in part the motions of
defendants Bakery Engineering/Winkler, Inc., Winkler Backereitechnik
GmbH and Werner & Pfleiderer Industrielle Backtechnik GmbH seeking
summary judgment and granted the cross motion of plaintiff for leave
to serve an amended complaint.

     It is hereby ORDERED that said appeals are unanimously dismissed
without costs as moot (see Sutton Investing Corp. v City of Syracuse,
12 AD3d 1201).

Entered:    April 29, 2016                      Frances E. Cafarell
