Head Matter:
Rose Dressler et al., Appellants, v. Socony Mobil Oil Co., Inc., et al., Respondents.

Opinion:
Judgment entered April 22, 1964, dismissing the complaint at the close of plaintiffs' case, unanimously reversed, on the law, and a new trial directed, with $50 costs to abide the event. Defendants' use of the sidewalk was a special use for the ingress and egress of motor vehicles to and from the gasoline station. The evidence establishes questions of fact as to the existence of a dangerous sidewalk condition consequent on said special use. (Mullins v. Siegel-Cooper Co., 183 N. Y. 129; Wylie v.
