In the Matter of Wesley Herman, Appellant, v Barbara Blum, as Commissioner of the New York State Department of Social Services, et al., Respondents.
    Decided June 30, 1981
    
      APPEARANCES OF COUNSEL
    
      Morton B. Dicker, Julian Z. Meltzer and John P. Cunningham for appellant.
    
      Robert Abrams, Attorney-General (Gerald Slotnik and Arlene Silverman of counsel), for respondent.
   OPINION OF THE COURT

On summary consideration, order affirmed, without costs. There is substantial evidence to support the commissioner’s determination that petitioner’s failure to accept his work referral was without good cause (see Matter of Purdy v Kreisberg, 47 NY2d 354, 358). The asserted evidentiary errors have not been preserved for judicial review because of the absence of a specific objection or request for an adjournment to remedy the asserted defects (Matter of Sowa v Looney, 23 NY2d 329, 333; Matter of Leogrande v State Liq. Auth., 19 NY2d 418, 423).

Concur: Chief Judge Cooke and Judges Jasen, Gabrielli, Jones, Wachtler, Fuchsberg and Meyer.
