have been appealable as of right under paragraph two had it decided a
motion made upon notice.
(b) Orders not appealable as of right. An order is not appealable to
the appellate division as of right where it:

article 78; or
2. requires or refuses to require a more definite statement in a
pleading; or
3. orders or refuses to order that scandalous or prejudicial matter be

judge who made the order granted before application to a justice of the
appellate division; or by permission of a justice of the appellate
division in the department to which the appeal could be taken, upon
refusal by the judge who made the order or upon direct application.
