Opinion:
Appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Albany County Special Term, which directed a separate trial of the issues raised as to the validity of two releases pleaded as a separate defense. The order was discretionary (Civ. Prac. Act, § 443, subd. 3), and it does not appear that the court at Special Term abused such discretion. Order unanimously affirmed, without costs.
