Head Matter:
MYERS v. ROSENBACK.
(Common Pleas of New York City and County,
General Term.
December 2, 1895.)
1. Appeal—Denial op Several Motions—General Exception.
A single exception to the denial of several motions does not present for review the denial of any one of the motions, unless the party was entitled to the granting of them all.
2. Same—Insufficient Ground.
An appeal from the court of common pleas to the court of appeals will not be granted merely because the decision may subject the party to costs in numerous suits he has brought.
Action by Frederick S. Myers against Moses S. Bosenback. A judgment of the general term of the city court (31 N. Y. Supp. 993), affirming a judgment in favor of defendant, was affirmed (3á lsT. Y. Supp. 63), and plaintiff moves for leave to appeal to the court of appeals. Denied.
Argued before DALY, C. J., and BISCHOFF and PRYOR, JJ.
Hamilton R. Squier, for plaintiff.
Horwitz & Hershfield (Otto Horwitz, of counsel), for defendant.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
All the questions which the appellant desires to present to the court of appeals were fully discussed and disposed of upon authority in the opinion at general term, and there seems to be no good reason, within the uniform adjudication in this court, for sending this case to the court of appeals. The point made on this motion that the error in the reception of evidence on the counterclaim may have influenced the jury on the merits of the action cannot be considered, as it was not presented on the appeal by any exception taken at the trial. The plaintiff's motions at the close of the case for a verdict in his favor on the whole case, and on the counterclaim, and on the question of damages, were united, to the denial of all which but one exception was taken; and as plaintiff was not entitled to the granting of all of such motions, the single exception taken does not present the particular error complained of. Bosley v. Machine Co., 123 N. Y. 550-557, 25 N. E. 990. That the decision of the general term may result in the defendant being compelled to pay costs in the numerous actions he has brought for the installments of rent he claimed, and which such decision may prevent his recovering, is not ground for granting leave to appeal.
Motion denied, with $10 costs.
