    HENRY A. ALLEN, APPELLANT, v. CITY OF PATERSON, HARRY J. BREEN ET AL., RESPONDENTS.
    Submitted December 10, 1923
    Decided March 3, 1924.
    This court need not, and ordinarily will not, consider a question not raised and argued in the court below, unless it goes to jurisdiction or involves public policy.
    On appeal from tlie Supreme Court, whose opinion is reported in 98 X. J. L. 661.
    For the appellant, Randal B. Lewis.
    
    For the respondent City of Paterson, Edward F. Merrey.
    
    For the respondent Harry J. Breen, Rosencrans & Rosen'crans.
    
   Per Curiam.

This is an appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court on certiorari rendered by Mr. Justice Minturn, sitting alone, It affirms a resolution of the board of zoning appeals of the city of Paterson, upon which was granted a permit by its building inspector, allowing Harry J. Breen to erect a certain garage.

This case is not properly here. The reasons for reversal filed in the Supreme Court are not brought up with the record, and the grounds of appeal filed in this court go to the reasoning or holdings in the opinion of the Supreme Court, and not one pi them avfers that its judgment) is erroneous. For the reasons stated in our opinion in Burhans v. City of Paterson, No. 31 of the present Hovember term, 1923, this appeal must be dismissed. Another thing: We have repeatedly held that this court need not, and ordinarily will not, consider a question not raised and argued in the court below, unless it goes to jurisdiction or involves public policy. Marten v. Brown, 81 N. J. L. 599; State v. Shupe, 88 Id. 610; Ruggles v. Ocean Accident, &c., Co., 89 Id. 180; State v. Heyer, Id. 187; Fortein v. Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad Co., 90 Id. 137, 139; McMichael v. Horay, Id. 142; Shaw v. Bender, Id. 147; Weiss v. Sullivan, 94 Id. 191, 193; State v. Belkota, 95 Id. 416; Carroll v. Payne, 96 Id. 129, 130, 131; State v. Snell, Id. 299; Franklin v. Millville, 98 Id. 262.

In the brief for Paterson it is submitted that there was nothing in the reasons assigned in the Supreme Court to suggest to counsel for the city that an attack was to be made upon the existence of the board of zoning appeals or of the validity of any part of the zoning ordinance. An examination of the reasons in the Supreme Court (which are printed at the end of the brief for respondent Breen), discloses the fact that this is true, and it would preclude consideration of the first, second and third grounds of appeal, which go to the validity of the zoning ordinance, even if there were a valid ground of appeal filed in this court.

The appeal in this case must be dismissed.
