OPINION OF THE COURT

Memorandum.

The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed, without costs, for the reasons stated in the opinion by Justice Howard A. Levine ( 95 AD2d 466 ).

In view of the grounds on which we affirm we have no reason to consider or decide whether, pursuant to section 532 of the Family Court Act, a wife may ever compel a blood test of her husband nor do we consider whether the best interests of the child may require the court to compel the husband to submit to a blood test.

Chief Judge Cooke and Judges Jasen, Jones, Meyer, Simons and Kaye concur; Judge Wachtler taking no part.

Order affirmed, without costs, in a memorandum.
