In the Matter of Benedict P. Ciaravino, Respondent, v. Marvin D. Cristenfeld et al., Constituting the Board of Elections of the County of Nassau, Respondents, and Myles G. O’Reilly, Appellant.
   In a proceeding to invalidate petitions designating appellant as a candidate in the Conservative Party Primary Election to be held on June 23, 1970 for nomination for the public office of Member of the Assembly for the 14th Assembly District, Nassau County, the appeal is from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Nassau County, entered June 11, 1970, which invalidated said petitions. Judgment reversed, on the law and the facts, without costs, and petitions declared valid. In our opinion, there was insufficient evidence properly before Special Term to sustain a finding that appellant’s entire petition should be invalidated for permeating fraud. Christ, P. J., Rabin, Hopkins, Kleinfeld and Brennan, JJ., concur.
