Maria ALI, Respondent, v. Carol CHANDLER, Appellant, and “John Doe” and “Jane Doe”, Undertenants.
Present: WESTON, J.P., PESCE and RIOS, JJ.
Appeal from an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Kings County (Marcia J. Sikowitz, J.), entered June 10, 2011. The order denied tenant's motion for, in effect, a two-week stay of execution of the warrant of eviction in a holdover summary proceeding.
ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed.
In this holdover summary proceeding, tenant appeals from an order of the Civil Court entered June 10, 2011 which denied her motion to stay the warrant of eviction for two weeks. The appeal must be dismissed as moot since the relief sought by tenant, a two-week stay, has expired and nothing in the record justifies an exception to the mootness doctrine ( see State of New York v. General Elect. Co., 103 A.D.2d 985 [1984];Hillside Place, LLC v. Lewis, 32 Misc.3d 137[A], 2011 N.Y. Slip Op 51534[U] [App Term, 2d, 11th & 13th Jud Dists 2011] ).
