HENRY LANGAN, et al., plaintiffs, v. MALOLA CABELA, defendant third-party plaintiff-respondent, EDEN ORLOFF, defendant third-party plaintiff-respondent-appellant; KEVIN L. McTAGUE, et al., third-party defendants-appellants.

ORDERED that the appeals by the third-party defendants Frank Blumetti, Rose Blumetti, Joseph E. Ahearne, Jamal Uddin, Jesmin A. Uddin, Gerald H. Thompson, Joyce C. Thompson, Dolores V. Williams and Anna Domashitsky are dismissed as abandoned; and it is further,

ORDERED that the appeal by the defendant third-party Eden Orloff is dismissed on the ground that Eden Orloff is not aggrieved by the order (see, CPLR 5511); and it is further,

ORDERED that the order is reversed insofar as appealed from by Kevin L. McTague and Josephine McTague, on the law, the cross motion is granted, and the third-party complaint is dismissed insofar as asserted against them; and it is further,

ORDERED that upon searching the record, the third-party complaint is dismissed insofar as asserted against the remaining third-party defendants; and it is further,

ORDERED that the third-party defendants Kevin L. McTague and Josephine McTague are awarded one bill of costs payable by the defendant third-party plaintiff-respondent and the defendant third-party plaintiff-respondent-appellant.

Since it has previously been determined that the plaintiffs cannot hold the defendants third-party plaintiffs liable (see, Langan v. Cabela, 280 A.D.2d 455), the motion of the third-party defendants Kevin L. McTague and Josephine McTague for summary judgment dismissing the third-party complaint insofar as it is asserted against them should have been granted (see, CPLR 1007; cf., e.g., DeLuca v. Lett, 173 A.D.2d 760).

In the interest of judicial economy, since it has been determined that the plaintiffs cannot recover against the defendants third-party plaintiffs, we search the record and also dismiss the third-party complaint against the remaining third-party defendants.

ALTMAN, J.P., H. MILLER, FEUERSTEIN and COZIER, JJ., concur.
