Wilkes v. Wilkes
Opinion of the Court
—In a habeas corpus proceeding for custody of and visitation with an infant, the mother, Naomi Reiss Wilkes, appeals from (1) an order of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Baisley, J.), dated November
Ordered that the appeals are dismissed, without costs or disbursements.
"No appeal lies from an intermediate order in a habeas corpus proceeding” (People ex rel. Johnson v Romano, 108 AD2d 888; People ex rel. Ardito v Trujillo, 88 AD2d 1002; Sassower v Finnerty, 68 AD2d 936; State of New York ex rel. Wallace v Lhotan, 48 AD2d 665; see also, People ex rel. Satti v Satti, 55 AD2d 149, 153, affd 43 NY2d 671). CPLR 7011, which governs the right of appeal in habeas corpus proceedings, states that "[a]n appeal may be taken from a judgment refusing to grant a writ of habeas corpus or refusing an order to show cause issued under subdivision (a) of section 7003, or from a judgment made upon the return of such writ or order to show cause”. In the instant case, no return was ever filed, and no judgment was entered. The intermediate orders dated November 16, 1993, and December 3, 1993, respectively, and the warrant of attachment dated November 16, 1993, are not appealable. Ritter, J. P., Pizzuto, Friedmann and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
