— Motion granted and automatic stay vacated. Memorandum: The respondent has not raised the issue whether the filing of the notice of appeal by appellant, a public authority, automatically stayed the trial (see, Matter of Gordon v Town of Esopus, 107 AD2d 114); hence we do not address that issue. Present — Callahan, J. P., Denman, Boomer, Balio and Lawton, JJ.
