118 Misc. 524 | N.Y. Sur. Ct. | 1922
In this discovery proceeding an answer has been filed, in which the respondent claims title to the property sought to be discovered. It also appears that an action has been commenced by the respondent in the Supreme Court of this county, in which issue has been joined. That action is against the savings bank and the administrator for the recovery of a bank deposit standing in the name of the decedent, claimed by the respondent as a gift causa mortis. The Supreme Court having first acquired jurisdiction, comity requires that this proceeding be dismissed.
Ordered accordingly.
