ALBERT KILLIAN AND MELISSA KILLIAN, PLAINTIFFS–RESPONDENTS, v. KEVIN HEIMAN, DEFENDANT–APPELLANT.
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
It is hereby ORDERED that the order so appealed from is unanimously affirmed without costs.
Memorandum: Defendant appeals from an order that, inter alia, denied his motion to dismiss the amended complaint with prejudice on the ground that one of the plaintiffs failed to appear at trial for a scheduled cross-examination. Defendant's contention that Supreme Court abused its discretion in denying that motion involves matters outside the record on appeal. We therefore are unable to determine the merits of defendant's contention, and defendant, “as the appellant, ․ must suffer the consequences” of submitting an incomplete record (Matter of Santoshia L., 202 A.D.2d 1027, 1028; see Matter of Rodriguez v. Ward, 43 AD3d 640, 641).
