Head Matter:
William O. Jones, Respondent, v. H. Freeman, Inc., Defendant, and M-V Shares, Inc., and Utica Gas and Electric Company, Appellants.

Opinion:
Motion to dismiss appeal denied. Inasmuch as H. Freeman, Inc., has paid the plaintiff's judgment and, therefore, because of the provisions of section 211-a of the Civil Practice Act, relating to contribution, has a substantial interest in sustaining the judgments against the appellants, it is to be treated as a respondent upon the appeal.
