    Mendel Bobker et al., Appellants, v Department of Housing Preservation and Development of the City of New York et al., Respondents.
    Decided September 19, 1985
   Appeal transferred to the Appellate Division, Second Department, without costs, by the Court of Appeals sua sponte. A direct appeal does not lie where 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]).
