PRESENT: GOLIA, J.P., PESCE and STEINHARDT, JJ.
In this action by a provider to recover assigned first-party no-fault benefits, plaintiff appeals, as limited by its brief, from so much of an order of the Civil Court entered June 19, 2009 as granted the branch of defendant's cross motion seeking to compel plaintiff to provide bank account information and produce copies of its corporate tax returns and its billing and management agreements, and provided that the complaint would be dismissed in the event plaintiff failed to comply with the order. Subsequent to the entry of the June 19, 2009 order, the Civil Court entered an order dismissing the action. The dismissal of the action rendered this appeal academic ( see Livny v Rotella, 305 AD2d 377; Delta Diagnostic Radiology, P.C. v Allstate Ins. Co., 2007 NY Slip Op 50673[U], 15 Misc 3d 131 [A] [App Term, 2d 11th Jud Dists 2007]; Vista Surgical Supplies, Inc. v Lumbermans Mut. Cas.
