Betty O. Muka, Appellant, v John L. Livingston, as Surrogate of St. Lawrence County, Respondent.

Decided June 10, 1986

Appeal transferred, without costs, by the Court of Appeals sua sponte, to the Appellate Division, Third Department. A direct appeal does not lie because no substantial question is presented as to the constitutional validity of the challenged statute (NY Const, art VI, § 3 [b] [2]; § 5 [b]; CPLR 5601 [b] [2]).
