Opinion
September 14, 1979
Present — Dillon, P.J., Hancock, Jr., Schnepp and Doerr, JJ. (Decided Aug. 22, 1979.)
Appeal from the Orleans Supreme Court.
Order unanimously affirmed, without costs. Memorandum: Special Term did not abuse its discretion when it struck down a 1971 court-imposed interim reapportionment plan as unconstitutional in view of a 26% deviation in representation between the Towns of Shelby and Clarendon and imposed a new interim reapportionment plan (Reynolds v. Sims, 377 U.S. 533; Montano v. Lee, 401 F.2d 214; see, also, Harradine v. Board of Supervisors of Orleans County, 68 A.D.2d 298).
