Schulz v. Silver , 23 N.Y.3d 1010 ( 2014 )

Appeal transferred, without costs, by the Court of Appeals, sua sponte, to the Appellate Division, Third 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]).
