Opinion
November 20, 1961
In an action to recover damages for the loss of a vessel owned by plaintiff, by reason of defendants' failure to secure certain insurance on the vessel, defendants appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Richmond County, dated September 13, 1961, denying their motion to strike the case from the Ready Day Trial Term Calendar of said court. Order reversed, with $10 costs and disbursements, and motion granted. The record discloses no basis for the granting of a preference under rule 151 of the Rules of Civil Practice. Nor does rule 10a of the Richmond County Supreme Court Rules authorize the granting of a preference under the circumstances here. Nolan, P.J., Beldock, Christ, Pette and Brennan, JJ., concur.
