People ex rel. Littlejohn v. Warden
Opinion of the Court
Motion for a preference denied. On the court’s own motion, direct appeal dismissed, without costs, in the following memorandum: The appeal sought to be taken by relators directly to the Court of Appeals from the Supreme Court’s order does not lie under CPLR 5601 (subd. [b], par. 2), since a question other than the constitutionality of statutory provisions is involved. Accordingly, since the court has no jurisdiction to hear the appeal, the motion for a preference should be denied.
