Defendant-respondent Irving Brand died after the taking of this appeal. It has been stipulated by and between the attorneys for the parties that the said death "will in no way be an impediment to the determination * * * of the issues submitted on the appeal.” Judgment affirmed, with costs. In our opinion, Trial Term properly determined that plaintiffs had failed to [933]*933establish a prima facie case (see, generally, McAleenan v Massachusetts Bonding & Ins.
