US Bank National Association, Respondent,

v

Margaret G. Dineen, Appellant, et al., Defendants.

Charles Wallshein, Melville, NY, for appellant.

RAS Boriskin, LLC, Westbury, NY (Joseph F. Battista and Leah Lenz of counsel), for respondent.

In an action to foreclose a mortgage, the defendant Margaret G. Dineen appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Thomas F. Whelan, J.), dated July 20, 2018. The order, insofar as appealed from, granted those branches of the plaintiff’s motion which were for summary judgment on the complaint insofar as asserted against that defendant and for an order of reference.

Ordered that the order is reversed insofar as appealed from, on the law, with costs, and those branches of the plaintiff’s motion which were for summary judgment on the complaint insofar as asserted against the defendant Margaret G. Dineen and for an order of reference are denied.

For reasons stated in Nationstar HECM Acquisition Trust 2015-2, Wilmington Sav. Fund Socy., FSB v Andrews (167 AD3d 1025 [2018]), we reverse the order insofar as appealed from and deny those branches of the plaintiff’s motion which were for summary judgment on the complaint insofar as asserted against the defendant Margaret G. Dineen and for an order of reference. Chambers, J.P., Leventhal, Duffy and Brathwaite Nelson, JJ., concur..
