John Robbins Et Al. v. Joseph J. Healy Et Al‪.‬

Order modified by striking therefrom the decretal provisions granting said cross motion and substituting therefor a provision granting said motion to the extent of the substitution of parties plaintiff and denying said motion otherwise, without prejudice to renewal upon proper papers which shall include competent medical proof of causal connection between the alleged malpractice and the death of the original plaintiff. As so modified, order affirmed, without costs. Absent proof as above indicated the granting of leave to serve the proposed amended complaint was an improvident exercise of discretion (Augenbraun v. G & B Distributors, 17 A.D.2d 785; McCarthy v. Downes, 17 A.D.2d 919; Rubin v. Grossman, 34 A.D.2d 680).
