Opinion
May 27, 1997
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Dutchess County (Bernhard, J.).
Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, with costs to the respondents.
Rulings made upon objections to questions posed in the course of an examination before trial are not appealable as of right, even if incorporated into a formal order ( Ewell v. Moore, 133 A.D.2d 67; Rockwood Natl. Corp. v. Peat, Marwick, Mitchell Co., 59 A.D.2d 573; see also, Feeley v. Midas Props., 168 A.D.2d 416, 417-418; Marks v. Top Job Sanitation Co., 145 A.D.2d 416; Crow-Crimmins-Wolff Munier v. County of Westchester, 126 A.D.2d 696). Moreover, this Court has held "on numerous occasions that `we are disinclined to grant leave to parties who have taken it upon themselves to perfect an appeal without leave to appeal'" ( Ewell v. Moore, supra, at 67, quoting Roberts v. Modica, 102 A.D.2d 886; Rockwood Natl. Corp. v. Peat, Marwick, Mitchell Co., supra, at 574). Accordingly, the instant appeal is dismissed.
Copertino, J.P., Thompson, Sullivan and Friedmann, JJ., concur.
