Allan Crawford v. Herman Leimzider

In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, etc., sustained in a construction accident, defendant Herman Leimzider appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Orange County (Green, J.), dated November 29, 1982, which granted plaintiffs motion for permission to serve a late reply to Leimziders counterclaim, and denied Leimziders cross motion for leave to enter a default judgment, and plaintiffs appeal, as limited by their brief, from so much of an order of the same court (Delaney, J.), dated April 18, 1983, as granted that branch of defendants Yudel and Leah Kahans motion which sought to amend their answer to assert a counterclaim for indemnification and/or contribution against plaintiffs under subdivision 1 of section 240 of the Labor Law.
