May 7, 1992.
The case was submitted on briefs.
Newman Flanagan, District Attorney, & Jane A. Sullivan, Assistant District Attorney, for the Commonwealth.

Opinion:
The sole issue on this appeal is whether a single justice of this court committed reversible error in denying the defendant's motion for stay of execution of sentence pending appeal of the denial of his motion for a new trial.
Our review is limited to errors of law including abuse of discretion. Commonwealth v. Allen, 378 Mass. 489, 498 (1979). There was no error.
Judgment affirmed.
