Head Matter:
Two Associates, Respondent, v Michael Brown, Appellant, et al., Defendant.
Submitted August 17, 1987;
decided October 15, 1987

Opinion:
On the court's own motion, appeal taken as of right dismissed, without costs, upon the ground that no substantial constitutional question is directly involved. Motion for leave to appeal denied. The Court of Appeals restates the rule that denial of a motion for leave to appeal is not equivalent to an affirmance and has no precedential value (see, e.g., Matter of Marchant v Mead-Morrison Mfg. Co., 252 NY 284, 297-298 [Cardozo, Ch. J.]; State Communities Aid Assn. v Regan, 69 NY2d 821).
