In the Matter of JOHN P. O'TOOLE, Appellant, v. ANTONIA R. D'APICE et al., Respondents, and EDWARD J. FAGAN, JR., Respondent-Respondent.

Judgment affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

Special Term correctly granted a motion by the respondent candidate to dismiss the proceeding. As noted by Special Term, petitioner's application contained a "blunderbuss charge" which failed to set forth any facts which would place respondent candidate on notice of irregularities or errors in the designating petition ( see, Matter of Cohen v. Moss, 97 A.D.2d 644; Matter of Reich v. Power, 30 A.D.2d 925, affd 22 N.Y.2d 887).

In any event, even if we were disposed to examine the merits of petitioner's objections to the designating petition, we would be unable to do so since petitioner has failed to provide the court with the designating petition. Brown, J.P., O'Connor, Weinstein, Kunzeman and Kooper, JJ., concur.
