MATTER OF KRUPCZAK v. MANCINI

Per Curiam.

Due to the fact that petitioner is not a member of the Republican Party and her challenge is based on claimed defects in party procedure, she lacks standing to challenge the validity of the certificates of authorization at issue (see, Matter of Wydler v. Cristenfeld, 35 N.Y.2d 719; Matter of Bennett v. Justin, 77 A.D.2d 960, affd 51 N.Y.2d 722). The judgment should therefore be affirmed.

Judgment affirmed, without costs. Mahoney, P.J., Kane, Casey, Weiss and Levine, JJ., concur.
