Opinion
July 1, 1991
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Rockland County (Meehan, J.).
Ordered that the appeal is dismissed as academic, without costs or disbursements.
The reason for the plaintiffs' application for a stay of proceedings in this action was to await the determination of an appeal in a related case. Since that appeal is now decided (see, Aetna Cas. Sur. Co. v Santos, 175 A.D.2d 91 [decided herewith]), the issue presented by this appeal has been rendered academic. Thompson, J.P., Kunzeman, Harwood and Balletta, JJ., concur.
