Opinion:
Appeal transferred, without costs, by the Court of Appeals, sua sponte, to the Appellate Division, First Department,, upon the ground that a direct appeal does not lie where questions other than the constitutional validity of a statutory provision are involved (NY Const, art VI, § 3 [b]; CPLR 5601 [b] [2]). Motion for leave to appeal dismissed upon the ground that this Court does not have jurisdiction to entertain the motion (NY Const, art VI, § 3 [b]; CPLR 5602 [a]). Motion for ancillary relief denied.
