In the Matter of Anthony B.-A. Suffolk County Department of Social Services, Respondent; Chandra B., Appellant.

[*1] Susan A. DeNatale, Mastic, N.Y., for appellant.

Christine Malafi, County Attorney, Central Islip, N.Y. (James G. Bernet of counsel), for respondent (no brief filed).

Arshia Baseer, Central Islip, N.Y., Attorney for the Child.

In a child neglect proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article 10, the mother appeals from an order of the Family Court, Suffolk County (Hoffmann, J.), dated July 29, 2010, which, after a permanency hearing, inter alia, continued placement of the subject child in the custody of the nonparty maternal grandmother.

Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements.

The mother's appeal from the order dated July 29, 2010, which, among other things, continued placement of the subject child in the custody of the nonparty maternal grandmother, has been superseded by an order dated January 24, 2011, from which no appeal has been taken, and an order dated July 18, 2011, which, after a subsequent permanency hearing, reinstated custody of the subject child to the mother. Accordingly, the appeal must be dismissed as academic (see Matter of Joseph A. [Fausat O.], 78 AD3d 826 [2010]; Matter of Herbert H. [Herbert A.H.], 70 AD3d 694 [2010]; Matter of Aniyah Mc.
