    Jane Hope et al., on Behalf of Themselves and All Others Similarly Situated, et al., Respondents, v Cesar Perales, as Commissioner of the New York State Department of Social Services, et al., Appellants.
    Submitted August 12, 1991;
    decided September 19, 1991
   On the Court’s own motion, appeal transferred, without costs, to the Appellate Division, First Department, upon the ground that a direct appeal does not lie when questions other than the constitutional validity of a statutory provision are involved (NY Const, art VI, § 3 [b] [2]; § 5 [b]; CPLR 5601 [b] [2]). Motion by St. Vincent’s Hospital et al., to intervene, etc., dismissed as academic.
