Appellate practice.

Practice point: If the order did not decide a motion made upon notice, there is no right of appeal, pursuant to CPLR 5701(a)(2).

Students should note that the Appellate Division may deem the notice of appeal a motion for leave to appeal, pursuant to CPLR 5701(c), and grant the motion.
