HYER v. COUNTY OF MADISON

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Third Department
May 1, 1935
244 App. Div. 859 (N.Y. App. Div. 1935)

Opinion

May, 1935.

Present — Hill, P.J., Rhodes, McNamee, Crapser and Heffernan, JJ.


Plaintiff in one of these cases is a resident of Tompkins county, and the other is a resident of Cortland county. Each plaintiff brought an action in his own county against the county of Madison on account of injuries received because of alleged defects in a highway of Madison county. Both plaintiffs were riding in the same vehicle. Madison county moved to change the place of trial to Madison county because the accident occurred there, and for the convenience of witnesses, and the Special Term denied the motion. This was a proper exercise of discretion on the papers presented. Orders unanimously affirmed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements, in one action.
