Head Matter:
In the Matter of the Application of Frank Pollock, Petitioner, for a Certiorari Order against the Board of Supervisors of Erie County, N. Y., Respondent.

Opinion:
Determination of board of supervisors confirmed, without costs. The expenses incurred by the petitioner do not, in our opinion, fall within the terms of subdivisions 9 and 18 of section 240 of the County Law. They arose rather in a legal proceeding for his own benefit and were not incurred for a county purpose. (Matter of Chapman v. City of New York, 168 N. Y. 80; N. Y. State Const. art. 8, § 10.) All concur. Present — Sears, P. J., Taylor, Thompson, Crosby and Lewis, JJ.
