Capital Newspapers, Division of Hearst Corp. v. Whalen
Opinion of the Court
— Motion for permission to appeal to the Court of Appeals granted, without costs. No issue of fact was considered by this court. Pursuant to CPLR 5713, this court certifies that the following question of law, decisive of the correctness of its determination, has arisen, which in its opinion ought to be reviewed by the Court of Appeals: "Did this court err, as a matter of law, in modifying Special Term’s judgment by reversing so much thereof as required disclosure of the papers of the late Erastus Corning, II, for the years 1980-1983 relating solely to his personal activities and those made or received in his capacity as Chairman of the Albany County Democratic Committee, remitting the matter to Special Term for further proceedings, and, as so modified, affirming the judgment?” Kane, J. P., Casey, Yesawich, Jr., Levine and Harvey, JJ., concur.
