123 A.D.2d 850 (N.Y. App. Div. 1986)

Opinion

October 27, 1986

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Nassau County (McCaffrey, J.).


Ordered that the order is reversed, on the law, with costs, and the appellant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the third-party complaint as against him is granted.

As the appellant originally pleaded, the third-party plaintiff was precluded from seeking contribution (see, General Obligations Law § 15-108 [c]) and was not entitled to indemnity (see, Nielsen v Greenman Bros., 123 A.D.2d 850; see also, Salonia v Samsol Homes, 119 A.D.2d 394). Thompson, J.P., Weinstein, Lawrence and Eiber, JJ., concur.
