George A. Murphy, J.
"Nearly all legislation involves a weighing of public needs as against private desires; and likewise a weighing of relative social values.” (Truax v Corrigan, 257 US 312, 357 [1921] [Brandeis, J., dissenting].)
In this action for, inter alla, compensatory damages together with attorneys’ fees and punitive damages, for permission to proceed as a class action and for a declaratory judgment, the parties agree that there are no issues of fact and the plaintiff moves for summary judgment while the defendants cross-move for the same summary relief.
