¶1In an action, inter alia, to recover damages for breach of contract, the plaintiffs appeal from stated portions of an order of the Supreme Court, Dutchess County (Sproat, J.), entered November 23, 2007, which, sua sponte, among other things, directed them to reimburse various sums of money to the defendants, and the defendants cross-appeal from stated portions of the same order.
¶2Ordered that the appeal and cross appeal are dismissed, without costs or disbursements.
¶3No appeal lies as of right from an order entered sua sponte (see CPLR 5701 [a]), and neither the plaintiffs nor the defendants sought leave to appeal from the order entered November 23, 2007 (see CPLR 5701 [c]). Under the circumstances of this case, we decline to grant leave to appeal (see Rubeo v National Grange Mut. Ins. Co., 93 NY2d 750, 757 [1999]; Matter of City of N.Y., S. Jamaica I Urban Renewal Area, 41 AD3d 595 [2007]; Russo v Russo, 275 AD2d 406 [2000]; Matter of Jennie EE., 210 AD2d 744, 745 [1994]). Skelos, J.P., Dillon, Covello and Leventhal, JJ., concur.
