In an action to foreclose a mortgage, the defendant Brian Weiss appeals, as limited by his brief, from (1) so much an order of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Adams, J.), dated April 25, 2014, as granted those branches of the plaintiff's motion which were for summary judgment on the complaint insofar as asserted against him and to appoint a referee to compute the amount due to the plaintiff, and (2) so much of an order of the same court, also dated April 25, 2014, as granted those branches of the plaintiff's motion which were for summary judgment on the complaint insofar as asserted against him, to strike his answer, and to appoint a referee to compute the amount due to the plaintiff.

133 A.D.3d 705

ORDERED that the appeal from the first order dated April 25, 2014, is dismissed, as that order was superseded by the second order; and it is further,

ORDERED that the second order dated April 25, 2014, is reversed insofar as appealed from, on the law, and those branches of the plaintiff's motion which were for summary judgment on the complaint insofar as asserted against the defendant Brian Weiss, to strike the answer of that defendant, and to appoint a referee to compute the amount due to the plaintiff are denied, and the first order dated April 25, 2014, is vacated; and it is further,

ORDERED that one bill of costs is awarded to the appellant.
