    Susan Kelly, as Administratrix of the Estate of James D. Kelly, Deceased, Appellant, v Kimberly Fenton, M.D., et al., Defendants, and Frank Darras, M.D., Respondent.
    [20 NYS3d 621]
   In an action to recover damages for medical malpractice, etc., the plaintiff appeals, as limited by her brief, from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Baisley, Jr., J.), dated November 20, 2014, as denied that branch of her motion which was to substitute herself, as administrator of the estate of James D. Kelly, for the deceased plaintiff, James D. Kelly, nunc pro tunc, as of the date of his death.

Ordered that the order is reversed insofar as appealed from, on the law, the facts, and in the exercise of discretion, with costs, and that branch of the plaintiff’s motion which was to substitute herself, as administrator of the estate of James D. Kelly, for the deceased plaintiff, James D. Kelly, nunc pro tunc, as of the date of his death, is granted.

The plaintiff moved to substitute herself, as administrator of the estate of James D. Kelly, for the deceased plaintiff, James D. Kelly, nunc pro tunc, as of the date of his death, and to amend the caption accordingly. In the order appealed from, the Supreme Court granted the motion only to the extent of making the substitution effective as of the date of the order, and amending the caption accordingly. Under the circumstances of this case, the Supreme Court should have granted the plaintiff’s motion in its entirety (see Humphries v Consolidated Edison Co. of NY Inc., 106 AD3d 634 [2013]; Nieves v 331 E. 109th St. Corp., 112 AD2d 59, 60-61 [1985]; see also Kilmer v Moseman, 124 AD3d 1195, 1197-1198 [2015]; McDonough v Bonnie Heights Realty Corp., 249 AD2d 520, 521 [1998]). Mastro, J.P., Dickerson, Miller and Maltese, JJ., concur.
