DECISION & ORDER
In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the plaintiffs appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Janice A. Taylor, J.), entered September 27, 2018. The order, insofar as appealed from, granted the defendant's motion pursuant to CPLR 3216 to dismiss the complaint.
