Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York

Decided November 30, 1897PublishedCited by 2 opinions

Appeal from trial term. Action by Henry McCready against Friend G. Haight and I. Marshall Freese. From an order denying defendants’ motion to vacate an order requiring defendant Haight to appear for examination before trial, and from an order refusing to change the cause of action, defendants appeal.

1Per curiam

This motion was properly denied. The case, in all its substantial aspects, falls within the decision in Talbot v. Doran & Wright Co. (Com. Pl.) 9 N. Y. Supp. 478. This case is also supported by other authorities. Miller v. Kent, 59 How. Prac. 321; Judah v. Lane, 14 Daly, 308. These authorities are conclusive of plaintiff’s right to have the examination asked for.

The appeal from the order denying defendants’ motion to change the place of trial from Queens to New York county should also be affirmed. Nothing appears in the papers which requires us to interfere with the discretion of the court…
