It is hereby ordered that said appeal be and the same hereby is unanimously dismissed without costs.
Memorandum: Respondent appeals from an order granting petitioner’s application seeking authorization to administer medication to respondent over his objection.

Present—Hurlbutt, J.P., Scudder, Kehoe, Green and Hayes, JJ.
