Head Matter:
Abraham Friedman, Respondent, v. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, Appellant.
First Department,
February 11, 1944.
David R. Crow of counsel (Tanner, Sillcocks £ Friend, attorneys), for appellant.
Samuel J. Joseph of counsel (Samuel Resnicoff, attorney), for respondent.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
In order to avoid the condition of the policy requiring indorsement on the policy of medical treatment of the insured within a period of two years from the date of the policy, the plaintiff offered evidence that the treatment was for a disease which was disclosed to the defendant. That evidence, however, was contradicted by proof offered by the defendant. The issue thus created should have been submitted to the jury.
. The determination of the Appellate Term and the judgment of the Municipal Court should, be reversed and a new trial granted, with costs in this court and in the Appellate Term to the appellant to abide the event.
