In an action to recover damages for dental malpractice, the appeal is from an order of the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Donovan J.), entered December 6, 2004, which granted the plaintiffs motion, in effect, for leave to file a supplemental summons and amended complaint, nunc pro tunc, adding Anthony Green and Evan Chavitz as defendants to the action.
Ordered that the appeal by the defendant Steven F. Bogart is dismissed, as that appellant is not aggrieved by the order appealed from (see CPLR 5511); and it is further,
Ordered that the order is affirmed; and it is further,
Ordered that one bill of costs is awarded to the plaintiff.
