Motion for leave to appeal denied, with $20 costs and necessary reproduction disbursements. 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.]; Matter of Brooklyn Hosp. v Lennon, 45 NY2d 820; Panico v Young, 46 NY2d 847).
