Warn v. . N.Y.C. H.R.R.R. Co.
New York Court of Appeals · Decided June 22, 1900 · WERNER, J.
57 N.E. 742; 163 N.Y. 525; 1900 N.Y. LEXIS 1096 (North Eastern Reporter)

Warn v. . N.Y.C. H.R.R.R. Co.

Opinion of the Court

This is not a unanimous affirmance. The cases of Harroun v.Brush El. Light Co. (152 N.Y. 212) *Page 527 and McDonnell v. N.Y.C. H.R.R.R. Co. (159 N.Y. 524) are not in conflict with this decision. In the former case, the record recited four justices as sitting, and they all concurred; in the latter case, all the justices composing the court heard the argument, but one of them died before it was decided. In this case one of the sitting justices did not vote, although he had the right to do so.

The motion should be denied, with ten dollars costs.

PARKER, Ch. J., O'BRIEN, BARTLETT, VANN, LANDON and CULLEN, JJ., concur.

Motion denied.
