Opinion

Submitted January 18, 1971

Decided January 21, 1971

Appeal from the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the Second Judicial Department, DOMINIC S. RINALDI, J.

I. Sidney Worthman for motion.

Robert Wilson opposed.


Motion granted and appeal dismissed, with costs and $10 costs of motion, upon the ground that the order appealed from does not finally determine the action within the meaning of the Constitution. Moreover, said order involves a question of discretion of the type not reviewable by the Court of Appeals ( Pellerin v. Groveville Corp., 27 N.Y.2d 590).
