DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the appeal from the decision is dismissed, as no appeal lies from a decision ( see, Schicchi v. Green Constr. Corp., 100 A.D.2d 509); and it is further,

ORDERED that the appeal from the order is dismissed; and it is further,

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed: and it is further,

ORDERED that the respondents are awarded one bill of costs.

The appeal from the intermediate order must be dismissed, because the right of direct appeal therefrom terminated with the entry of judgment in this proceeding ( see, Matter of Aho, 39 N.Y.2d 241, 248). The issues raised on the appeal from the order are considered on the appeal from the judgment ( see, CPLR 5501 [a][1]).

It is undisputed that the notice of foreclosure of tax liens was sent to the petitioner 380 Front Street No. 20 Corp. (hereinafter 380 Front Street) at 34 West Columbia Street, Hempstead, New York, 11550, its last known address on the record in the office of the enforcing officer. The addition of an ampersand to the name of 380 Front Street in the address on the envelope was a de mininmis error which did not affect the validity of the mailing ( see, American Mtge. Bank v. Matovitz, 208 A.D.2d 788). Moreover, 380 Front Street fails to contend that it did not receive any tax notices, except the notice at issue here, or that it changed its address on the tax rolls. Under these circumstances, the mailing, which was to the last known address of 380 Front Street, was sufficient ( see, Real Property Tax Law ยง 1124; Matter of ISCA Enters. v. City of New York, 77 N.Y.2d 688; Matter of T.E.A. Mar. Automotive Corp. v. Scaduto, 199 A.D.2d 511; cf., Tobia v. Town of Rockland, 106 A.D.2d 827; Wiesnienski v. Basinait, 59 A.D.2d 1028; see also, Cornwall Warehousing v. Town of New Windsor, 238 A.D.2d 370).

The petitioners' remaining contentions are without merit.
