Order reversed, with costs in all courts, and complaint dismissed upon the ground that plaintiff’s failure to shut off the power on the air conditioning machine before attempting to replace the compressor belt was so careless as to amount to contributory negligence as a matter of law (Utica Mut. Ins. Co. v. Amsterdam Color Works, 284 App. Div. 376, affd. 308 N. Y. 816).
Concur: Chief Judge Desmond and Judges Dye, Fuld, Van Voorhis, Burke, Scileppi and Bergan.
