   OPINION OF THE COURT

Appeal dismissed, without costs. As the nonparticipating tobacco manufacturers are not required by Supreme Court’s order to arbitrate and will not be bound by the arbitration, they are not aggrieved.

Concur: Chief Judge Lippman and Judges Ciparick, Graffeo, Read, Smith, Pigott and Jones.
