Head Matter:
Eslyn Threewitts et al., Respondents, v. Manuel A. Almanzar, Appellant.

Opinion:
Order, entered March 21, 1960, denying defendant's motion to dismiss the complaint for failure to prosecute, unanimously reversed, on the law, on the facts, and in the exercise of discretion, with $20 costs and disbursements to appellant, and the motion granted, with $10 costs. The lack of an affidavit of merits is fatal to plaintiffs' position. Moreover, there is insufficient excuse for their delay. Concur — Botein, P. J., Breitel, Stevens and Eager, JJ.
