Head Matter:
William S. Adler, Inc., Respondent, v Roger M. Carlson et al., Appellants and Third-Party Plaintiffs-Respondents, et al., Defendants. Robert E. Sharpe, Third-Party Defendant-Appellant.

Opinion:
Order unanimously modified on the law and as modified affirmed without costs, in accordance with the following memorandum: The court properly dismissed defendants' affirmative defenses because defendants failed to allege facts sufficient to support either a waiver or fraud on the part of plaintiff. Because the third-party complaint was based upon the same allegations as the affirmative defenses, it likewise should have been dismissed.
