Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements.
Where, as here, there is no allegation that Justice Wood is legally disqualified from presiding over a proceeding (see, Judiciary Law § 14), disqualification is only appropriate where the court's impartiality might reasonably be questioned (see, Matter of Johnson v.

Moreno, 70 N.Y.2d 403). Lawrence, J.P., Ritter, Hart and Krausman, JJ., concur.
