Louis J. Lefkowitz, Attorney-General (Maryellen Weinberg of counsel), for motion.

Motion granted and the direct appeal dismissed, without costs, upon the ground that it presents questions other than the constitutionality of a statute (CPLR 5601, subd. [b], par. 2). The appeal should be taken to the Appellate Division where the question of the liability of the stepparent for the support of his minor stepchildren who are recipients of public assistance should be considered, as well as the validity of respondents ’ decision under the State law.
