DECISION & ORDER
In an action to foreclose a mortgage, the defendant David J. Smith, Jr., appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Thomas F. Whelan, J.), dated September 2, 2020. The order denied that defendant's motion pursuant to CPLR 3215(c) to dismiss the complaint insofar as asserted against him as abandoned and for leave to renew that branch of his prior motion which was pursuant to CPLR 3215(c) to dismiss the complaint insofar as asserted against him as abandoned, which had been denied in an order of the same court dated September 26, 2018.
ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed as academic, without costs or disbursements.
The appeal must be dismissed as academic in light of our determination on a related appeal from an order of the same court dated September 26, 2018 (see Deutsche Bank Trust Co. Americas v Smith, _____ AD3d _____ [Appellate Division Docket No. 2019-13849; decided herewith]).
DUFFY, J.P., MALTESE, WOOTEN and WAN, JJ., concur.
