DECISION & ORDER
In an action, inter alia, to recover damages for medical malpractice, the defendants Hemangi Shukla and Steven Inglis separately appeal from (1) an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Peter J. O'Donoghue, J.), entered August 15, 2017, and (2) an order of the same court entered December 21, 2017. The order entered August 15, 2017, insofar as appealed from, denied those defendants' separate motions for summary judgment dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against each of them. The order entered December 21, 2017, insofar as appealed from, upon reargument, adhered to the determination in the order entered August 15, 2017.
ORDERED that the appeals are dismissed, without costs or disbursements.
The appeals from both orders must be dismissed because the right of direct appeal therefrom terminated with the entry of a judgment in the action on August 3, 2018 (see Matter of Aho, 39 N.Y.2d 241, 248). The issues raised on the appeals from these orders have been considered on the related appeal from the judgment (see Johnson-Hendy v Mosu, A.D.3d [Appellate Division Docket No. 2018-11051; decided herewith]).
