Nicholas A. Karger, Respondent, v. Pierre F. Nesi, Appellant, et al., Defendants.

Opinion:
Order, entered on September 15, 1960, except so much thereof as denies plaintiff's motion for a severance of the action and the entry of judgment against the defendant-appellant, unanimously modified on the law and on the facts so as to deny the plaintiff's motion unconditionally in all respects, with $10 costs, and, as so modified, the order is affirmed, with $20 costs and disbursements to the appellant.
