Daniel E. Lubetsky, Jamaica, N.Y., for appellant.
Larry S. Bachner, Jamaica, N.Y., for respondent.
Sandra M. Munoz, Jamaica, N.Y., attorney for the child.
Appeal from an order of the Family Court, Queens County (Dennis Lebwohl, J.), dated February 26, 2015. The order, without a hearing, granted the father's motion to dismiss the mother's petition, inter alia, to modify a prior order of custody so as to allow for visitation with the subject child.
ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed as academic, without costs or disbursements.
Since the subject child has reached the age of 18, he is no longer subject to the order appealed from, and the appeal from the order must be dismissed as academic (see Matter of Chana J.A. v. Barry S., 135 A.D.3d 743, 743, 22 N.Y.S.3d 586 ; Matter of Fowler v. Rivera, 134 A.D.3d 708, 709, 22 N.Y.S.3d 68 ; Matter of Julian B. v. Williams, 97 A.D.3d 671, 671, 947 N.Y.S.2d 898 ).
ENG, P.J., ROMAN, LaSALLE and BARROS, JJ., concur.
