     Appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Erie County (John L.
Michalski, A.J.), entered October 11, 2013. The order, insofar as
appealed from, denied in part the motion of plaintiffs for a
protective order to prevent the disclosure of the mental health
records of plaintiffs’ decedent.

     It is hereby ORDERED that the order insofar as appealed from is
unanimously reversed on the law without costs and the motion is
granted in its entirety.

     Same Memorandum as in Rice v Corasanti ([appeal No. 1] ___ AD3d
___ [Nov. 21, 2014]).
