Opinion:
OPINION OF THE COURT
Order affirmed. In this case, in which the Appellate Division affirmed the findings made by the suppression court, we cannot say as a matter of law that probable cause to enter the apartment and to conduct a search was not established. As to the sentencing issue raised by the defendant, no question of law was preserved for our review.
Concur: Chief Judge Cooke and Judges Jasen, Gabrielli, Jones, Wachtler, Fuchsberg and Meyer.
