Stephen M. Hudspeth, New York, for petitioner.
Eric T. Schneiderman, Attorney General, New York (Laura R. Johnson of counsel), for State respondents.
Michael A. Cardozo, Corporation Counsel, New York (Susan Paulson of counsel), for City respondent.SAXE, J.P., SWEENY, ACOSTA, DeGRASSE, ABDUS–SALAAM, JJ.
