Opinion
December 3, 1990
Appeal from the Family Court, Queens County (Schindler, J.).
Ordered that the appeal is dismissed as academic, without costs or disbursements.
The order of protection granted to the petitioner husband has already expired, and there is no indication in the record that it has been extended. Since the rights of the parties will not be directly affected by a determination as to the propriety of this order, the appeal is dismissed as academic (see, Matter of Hearst Corp. v. Clyne, 50 N.Y.2d 707; Matter of Gansburg v. Gansburg, 127 A.D.2d 766). Balletta, J.P., Miller, O'Brien and Ritter, JJ., concur.
