Opinion
October 14, 1997
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Nassau County (O'Brien, J.).
Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, with costs.
No appeal lies from an order made upon the default of the aggrieved party ( see, CPLR 5511). To the extent that on this appeal the defendant seeks review of a prior order of the same court dated September 21, 1995, which denied his motion to vacate his default in answering the complaint, such review is available only on a direct appeal from the prior order ( see, Grober v Busigo, 133 A.D.2d 389; Imor v. Imor, 114 A.D.2d 552; Calvagno v. Nationwide Mut. Fire Ins. Co., 110 A.D.2d 741), or on an appeal from a final judgment in the action ( see, James v. Powell, 19 N.Y.2d 249; CPLR 5501 [a] [1]).
O'Brien, J.P., Santucci, Joy and Altman, JJ., concur.
