DECISION & ORDER

In an action to recover damages for personal injuries and injury to property, the plaintiff appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Paul J. Baisley, Jr., J.), dated August 9, 2017. The order denied the plaintiff's motion pursuant to CPLR 602(a) to consolidate the instant action with a consolidated action entitled Serrano v. County of Suffolk, pending in the same court under Index No. 36305/06.

ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed as academic, without costs or disbursements, in light of our determination on the related appeal (see Serrano v. County of Suffolk, 188 A.D.3d 938, ––– N.Y.S.3d ––––, 2020 WL 6601659 [Appellate Division Docket No. 2019–00761 ; decided herewith] ).
