Head Matter:
Mary O’Keefe, as Administratrix, etc., of Thomas P. O’Keefe, Deceased, Respondent, v. William Halstead, Defendant, and John Herbert King and William Scott and James T. Scott, Copartners, Doing Business under the Firm Name and Style of Scott Bros., Appellants.

Opinion:
Judgment and order unanimously affirmed, with costs, as to defendant King. No opinion. As to defendants Scott, judgment and order reversed upon the law and the facts, and a new trial granted, costs to abide the event, upon the ground that the verdict that the automobile was used and operated by King with the express or implied permission of defendants Scott was against the weight of the evidence. Lazansky, P. J., Rich, Kapper, Seeger and Scudder, JJ., concur.
