ROSE, J.
While she was separated from respondent and contemplating an action for divorce, petitioner applied for and received a temporary order of protection against respondent in this Family Ct Act article 8 proceeding. Thereafter, following a hearing on petitioner's accusations of domestic violence, the order of protection was extended. The last such order, dated September 27, 2004, extended its restraints until August 25, 2005. Petitioner's present application to modify the order was denied by Family Court. Inasmuch as the order of protection is no longer in effect, this appeal by petitioner is now moot and must be dismissed ( see Matter of Noor v. Noor, 15 AD3d 788, 788; Matter of Hanehan v. Hanehan, 8 AD3d 712, 714; Matter of Schreiber v. Schreiber, 2 AD3d 1094, 1095).
Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, as moot, without costs.
