Opinion:
OPINION OF THE COURT
Memorandum.
The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed.
Defendant's own alternative request at Supreme Court that the original indictment be reinstated precludes this Court from reaching his current primary contention that Supreme Court did not have the authority to vacate the order dismissing the original indictment (CPL 470.05 [2]). The remainder of defendant's contentions are either unpreserved, nonreviewable or meritless.
Chief Judge Kaye and Judges Bellacosa, Smith, Levine, Ciparick, Wesley and Rosenblatt concur.
Order affirmed in a memorandum.
