MARTIN M. SOLOMON, JJ.
DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION
Appeal from an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Richmond County, entered December 21, 2015.
On the court's own motion, it is
ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed.
Appellant did not submit any papers in opposition to respondent's motion giving rise to the December 21, 2015 order. No appeal lies from an order entered upon the default of the appealing party (see CPLR 5511; Benitez v Olson, 29 AD3d 503 [2006]; Viggiani v Grodotzke, 306 AD2d 273 [2003]; see also M & C Bros., Inc. v Torum, 75 AD3d 869 [2010]). In addition, no appeal as of right lies from an order that sets the matter down for a traverse hearing (see Wheeler v McCreight, 34 Misc 3d 144[A], 2012 NY Slip Op 50143[U] [App Term, 2d Dept, 2d, 11th & 13th Jud Dists 2012]).
