Head Matter:
Josephine Jones, as Administratrix of the Estate of James Wright, Deceased, Appellant, v. 416 Pleasant Avenue Holding Corp., Respondent.

Opinion:
Order unanimously reversed, with $20 costs and disbursements to appellant, and the motion denied. Defendant was in a position to know the facts and to assert the new defense it now wishes to add to its amended answer in time to plead them without prejudice to plaintiff. By the delay plaintiff is prejudiced and under the circumstances the amendment should not be allowed. Present — Peck, P. J., Callahan, Van Yoorhis, Heffernan and Bergan, JJ.
