Sandelands Eyet, LLP, New York, NY (Margaret S. Stefandl of counsel), for appellant.

DECISION & ORDER
In an action to foreclose a mortgage, the plaintiff appeals from (1) an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Martin J. Schulman, J.), dated May 14, 2014, and (2) an order of the same court dated May 7, 2015. The order dated May 14, 2014, sua sponte, directed dismissal of the complaint and cancellation of the notice of pendency filed against the subject property. The order dated May 7, 2015, denied the plaintiff's motion pursuant to CPLR 5015(a) to vacate the order dated May 14, 2014, and to restore the action to the calendar.
ORDERED that the appeal from the order dated May 14, 2014, is dismissed, without costs or disbursements, as no appeal lies as of right from an order that does not decide a motion made on notice (see  CPLR 5701[a][2]), and we decline to grant leave to appeal (see  CPLR 5701[c]); and it is further,
ORDERED that the order dated May 7, 2015, is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
Under the facts and circumstances of this case, the Supreme Court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in denying the plaintiff's motion, inter alia, to vacate the May 14, 2014, order directing dismissal of the complaint.
SCHEINKMAN, P.J., AUSTIN, COHEN and HINDS-RADIX, JJ., concur.
