DECISION & ORDER In a hybrid action, inter alia, for declaratory relief and proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78, the defendants/respondents appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Linda S. Jamieson, J.), dated September 11, 2018. The order, insofar as appealed from, granted the motion of the plaintiffs/petitioners pursuant to CPLR 3124 to compel the depositions of certain witnesses, and denied the cross motion of the defendants/respondents Village of Mamaroneck and Village of Mamaroneck Board of Trustees pursuant to CPLR 3103 for a protective order precluding those depositions.
ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed as academic, without costs or disbursements.
In light of our determination on a related appeal (see Matter of Hampshire Recreation, LLC v. Village of Mamaroneck . 181 A.D.3d 904, 119 N.Y.S.3d 890, 2020 WL 1435974 [Appellate Division Docket No. 2017–05104 ; decided herewith] ), this appeal has been rendered academic (see Ahmed Elkoulily, M.D., P.C. v. New York State Catholic Healthplan, Inc., 153 A.D.3d 772, 773 ).
AUSTIN, J.P., ROMAN, MALTESE and LASALLE, JJ., concur.
