Supreme Court, Appellate Term, First Department

133 Misc. 714 (N.Y. App. Term 1929)

Opinion

March 13, 1929.

Appeal from the City Court of the City of New York, New York county.

Henry Goldstein, for the appellant.

Harry H. Lipsig, for the respondent.


Plaintiff having defaulted in the service of a bill of particulars directed to be served by order of the court below, and a subsequent order having been made by that court precluding plaintiff because of his default from offering proof of his alleged cause of action, it was error to make the order appealed from, which although containing no reference to the precluding order in effect reverses that order.

Order reversed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements, and motion denied, with ten dollars costs, without prejudice to an application to vacate preclusion order and open default in serving bill of particulars.

LYDON and CALLAHAN, JJ., concur.


I concur with that portion of the decision of this court reversing the order below, but dissent as to the remaining portion.
