MEMORANDUM.

The judgment of the Appellate Division should be reversed, with costs, and the determination of the State Tax Commission reinstated.

As stated in the dissenting opinion of Mr. Justice J.

Shapiro never established a domicile in England and that both taxpayers were residents of New York State for income tax purposes for the year 1971.

Chief Judge COOKE and Judges JASEN, GABRIELLI, JONES, WACHTLER, FUCHSBERG and MEYER concur in memorandum.
