DECISION & ORDER

195 A.D.3d 976

In an action to foreclose a mortgage, the defendant appeals from (1) an order of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Thomas F. Whelan, J.), dated July 28, 2017, and (2) an order of the same court also dated July 28, 2017. The first order granted the plaintiff's motion for summary judgment on the complaint, to strike the defendant's answer, and for an order of reference, and denied the defendant's cross motion to compel discovery. The second order also granted the plaintiff's motion for summary judgment on the complaint, to strike the defendant's answer, and for an order of reference, and appointed a referee to compute the amount due to the plaintiff.

ORDERED that the first order is modified, on the law, by deleting the provision thereof granting the plaintiff's motion for summary judgment on the complaint, to strike the defendant's answer, and for an order of reference, and substituting therefor a provision denying that motion; as so modified, the first order is affirmed, and the second order is vacated; and it is further,

ORDERED that the appeal from the second order is dismissed as academic in light of our determination on the appeal from the first order; and it is further,

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