80 A.D.3d 744

In an action, inter alia, to recover damages for medical malpractice, the plaintiff appeals, as limited by her brief, from (1) so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Rockland County (Weiner, J.), dated October 16, 2009, as granted the separate motions of the defendant Good Samaritan Hospital, and the defendants Andrew Schechter and Lewis Bobroff pursuant to CPLR 3211(a)(5) and (8) to dismiss the amended complaint insofar as asserted against each of them, and the motion of the defendant "John" Bauman pursuant to CPLR 3211(a)(5) to dismiss the amended complaint insofar as asserted against him, and (2) so much of an order of the same court dated March 24, 2010, as, upon reargument, adhered to the original determination granting the motion of the defendant "John" Bauman pursuant to CPLR 3211(a)(5) to dismiss the amended complaint insofar as asserted against him.

ORDERED that the appeal from so much of the order dated October 16, 2009, as granted the motion of the defendant "John" Bauman pursuant to CPLR 3211(a)(5) to dismiss the amended complaint insofar as asserted against him is dismissed, as that portion of the order was superseded by the order dated March 24, 2010, made upon reargument; and it is further,

ORDERED that the order dated October 16, 2009, is reversed insofar as reviewed, and the separate motions of the defendant Good Samaritan Hospital, and the defendants Andrew Schechter and Lewis Bobroff pursuant to CPLR 3211(a)(5) and (8) to dismiss the amended complaint insofar as asserted against each of them are denied; and it is further,

ORDERED that the order dated March 24, 2010, is reversed insofar as appealed...
