DECISION & ORDER In an action to foreclose a mortgage, the defendant Bernadette M. Fernando appeals from an amended order of the Supreme Court, Westchester County (William J. Giacomo, J.), dated November 2, 2017. The amended order, insofar as appealed from, granted those branches of the motion of nonparty-respondent Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, which were for summary judgment on the complaint insofar as asserted against the defendant Bernadette M. Fernando, to strike that defendant's answer, and for an order of reference, and referred the matter to a referee to ascertain and compute the amount due on the mortgage loan.
ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements. The appeal must be dismissed because the right of direct appeal therefrom terminated with the entry of the order and judgment of foreclosure and sale in the action (see Matter of Aho, 39 N.Y.2d 241, 248, 383 N.Y.S.2d 285, 347 N.E.2d 647 ). The issues raised on the appeal are brought up for review on the appeal from the order and judgment of foreclosure and sale ( Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB v Fernando, ––– AD3d ––––, 174 N.Y.S.3d 271 [decided herewith]; see CPLR 5501[a][1] ).
