    In the Matter of Michael P., Appellant, v Diana G., Respondent.
    Submitted April 30, 1990;
    decided May 10, 1990
   Motion for leave to appeal denied. Motion for a stay dismissed as academic. The Court of Appeals restates the rule that denial of a motion for leave to appeal is not equivalent to an affirmance and has no precedential value (see, e.g., Matter of Marchant v Mead-Morrison Mfg. Co., 252 NY 284, 297-298 [Cardozo, Ch. J.]; New York Pub. Interest Research Group v Governor’s Advisory Commn., 71 NY2d 964).
