[*1]
 Green Tree Credit, LLC, Formerly Known as ConsecoFinance Credit Corp., Respondent,
v
Godfrey Jelks, Individually and asExecutor of Eva T. Clark, Deceased, Appellant, et al.,Defendants.

Godfrey Jelks, Brooklyn, N.Y., appellant pro se.

Carter, Conboy, Case, Blackmore, Maloney & Laird, P.C., Albany, N.Y. (JamesA. Resila of counsel), for respondent.

In an action to foreclose a mortgage, the defendant Godfrey Jelks appeals from anorder of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Schmidt, J.), dated October 24, 2012, which,inter alia, upon denying the plaintiffs' motion for an order directing the foreclosure saleof the subject premises, provided him only until January 7, 2013, to obtain a reversemortgage with which he could satisfy the mortgage being foreclosed upon.

Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, with costs.

It is the appellant's obligation to assemble a proper record on appeal (see Keita v United ParcelServ., 65 AD3d 571 [2009]; Salem v Mott, 43 AD3d 397 [2007]). Here, the record isinadequate because it does not include all of the relevant papers and documents that werebefore the Supreme Court. Since the record is inadequate to enable this Court to renderan informed decision on the merits, the appeal must be dismissed (see CitiMortgage, Inc. vThorpe, 87 AD3d 1048 [2011]; Keita v United Parcel Serv., 65 AD3d at572). Dillon, J.P., Chambers, Hall and Maltese, JJ., concur.
