Opinion
May 12, 1960
Appeal from the Erie County Court.
Present — Williams, P.J., Bastow, Goldman, Halpern and McClusky, JJ.
Judgment unanimously reversed insofar as the complaint was dismissed "upon the merits" and judgment of dismissal otherwise affirmed, without costs of this appeal to any party. Memorandum: We do not approve the conduct of plaintiff's attorney, but, so far as the record shows, the Trial Judge gave no direction to dismiss the complaint upon the merits and it was, therefore, improper to enter a judgment dismissing it upon the merits, under section 482 of the Civil Practice Act.
