1Opinion of the CourtShapiro, Acting P. J.
The question in this case is whether the court obtained jurisdiction over defendants McLean Trucking Co. (McLean) and John Stephen Adams.
An automobile driven by plaintiff Julius Lederman, in which the other plaintiffs were passengers, was involved in a three-car collision in Brooklyn, New York, on March 27,1969. McLean, a North Carolina corporation, was the owner of one of the vehicles and defendant Adams was the operator of that vehicle. Defendant Kelly, not a party to this appeal, apparently was the operator of the third vehicle.
