Scott v. Detroit & Cleveland Navigation Co.

Opinion of the Court

Memorandum: The complaint fails to state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action. (See Beatty v. McCutcheon, 200 App. Div. 869.) A bill of particulars is no part of the pleadings and cannot enlarge a cause of action or perfect an imperfect pleading. (Dodge v. Weill, 158 N. Y. 346.) All concur. (Appeal from order denying defendant’s motion to dismiss plaintiff’s first cause of action, in a negligence action.) Present — 'Taylor, P. J., McCum, Vaughan, Kimball and Wheeler, JJ.
