OPINION OF THE COURT
Chief Judge Breitel.
Petitioners are former part-time estate tax attorneys in the noncompetitive class of the civil service in the State Department of Taxation and Finance. They brought this proceeding under CPLR article 78 for reinstatement to the positions from which they had been removed by respondent commissioner. They appeal from an order of the Appellate Division which affirmed, one Justice dissenting, the dismissal of their petition on grounds of res judicata. An earlier petition seeking the same relief had resulted in a final judgment for respondent.
