Head Matter:
Howard E. Sullivan, Respondent; Eileen K. Sullivan, an Infant, by Her Guardian ad Litem, Howard E. Sullivan, Plaintiff, v. Efficient Trucking Corporation, Appellant, and Charles Barson, Defendant.

Opinion:
In an action to recover damages for personal injuries sustained in a collision between a taxicab, in which respondent was riding as a passenger, and a truck, judgment for respondent and order denying motion for a new trial unanimously affirmed, with costs. The appellant has no standing to contest the dismissal of the complaint as against its codefendant; nor may it place the burden of justifying such dismissal on the respondent, against whom it was rendered.
