Opinion

Argued January 19, 1937

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Third Department.

William B. Crowell, Harry Cole Bates, Allan E. Brosmith and Louis H. Cooke for Metropolitan Life Insurance Company et al., amici curiae. Isadore Rothenberg for respondent.


The evidence shows that the insured was permanently and totally disabled as defined in the policies. It is, therefore, unnecessary to determine whether the definition formulated by the courts below accurately explained the language of the policies.

The judgments should be affirmed, with one bill of costs.

CRANE, Ch. J., LEHMAN, O'BRIEN, HUBBS, LOUGHRAN, FINCH and RIPPEY, JJ., concur.
