Arnoux, Bitch & Woodford, for appellant. M. W. Hart, for respondent.

Sullivan v. Metropolitan Life Insurance

Opinion of the Court

Daly, C. J.

The first defense set up in this action, as appears from the record from the court below, is breach of warranty; and the general term reversed the j udgment in plaintiff’s favor, because the defense had been sustained by competent testimony. There was therefore no misapprehension on the part of the general term-. Motion for reargument denied, with $10 costs.

Concurring Opinion

Bischoff, J.,

(concurring.) The case of Edington v. Insurance Co., 67 N. Y. 185, cited by counsel for respondent on this motion, has no application to the facts of this case. Motion for reargument denied, with costs.
