    (October 18, 1977)
    In the Matter of Ellen D. Cooperman, Appellant.
   On the court’s own motion, appeal by petitioner from an order of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County, entered November 29, 1976, denying her application for a change of name, dismissed, without prejudice to such other proceedings as petitioner may be advised to institute. An appeal from an ex parte order is not authorized (Matter of Bean v Stoddard, 207 App Div 276, affd 238 NY 618; Matter of Willmark Serv. System, 21 AD2d 478). In our opinion, review of this ex parte order does not come within the provisions of CPLR 5704 (subd [a]). Gulotta, P. J., Hopkins, Latham and Cohalan, JJ., concur.
