It is further ordered that the branch of plaintiffs-respondents' motion which seeks reargument of this Court's March 31, 2022 decision and order is denied, and
It is further ordered that the branch of plaintiffs-respondents' motion which seeks leave to appeal to the Court of Appeals is granted (M-2022-01800), and the following question is certified to the Court of Appeals: Was the decision and order of this Court, dated March 31, 2022, properly made?
