p. 944In the Matter of the Estate of Stanley Wagner, Deceased. Jaan Aarismaa, IV, Appellant; John L. Wagner, as Executor of Stanley A. Wagner, Deceased, Respondent. Submitted August 4, 2014; decided September 16, 2014
On the Court’s own motion, appeal transferred, without costs, to the Appellate Division, Fourth Department, upon the ground that a direct appeal does not lie when questions other than the constitutional validity of a statutory provision are involved (see NY Const, art VI, §§ 3 [b] [2]; 5 [b]; CPLR 5601 [b] [2]). Motion to strike denied.
