The opinion

— Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 in the nature of prohibition and mandamus to prohibit the respondent Richard A. Brown, the Queens County District Attorney, from proceeding with the prosecution of the petitioner under Queens County indictment No. 423/13 and to compel the respondent to have that indictment dismissed, and application by the petitioner to prosecute the proceeding as a poor person.

Ordered that the application for leave to prosecute the proceeding as a poor person is granted to the extent that the filing fee imposed by CPLR 8022 (b) is waived, and the application is otherwise denied as academic; and it is further,

Adjudged that the petition is dismissed, without costs or disbursements.

This Court does not have subject matter jurisdiction to entertain this proceeding (see CPLR 506 [b]; 7804 [b]). Eng, RJ., Dillon, Maltese and Duffy, JJ., concur.
