   GAYNOR, J.

The court should not be bothered with a motion like this except upon proof that a request has been made to the attorney for the opposite side for the information and refused. In this case the order to show cause seems to have been obtained only as a subterfuge to get an extension of time to answer.

The motion is denied with $10 costs and the extension of time to answer is vacated.
