OBEID v. THERMO NATIONAL INDUSTRIES, INC

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.
Jan 17, 1989

Ordered that the order is reversed, with costs, and the motion is granted.

We conclude that a joint trial of the two negligence actions involved herein would be appropriate in view of the plaintiff's claim, which was supported by a medical affidavit, that the second accident aggravated the injuries sustained in the first accident (see, Boyman v Bryant, 133 A.D.2d 802; Megyesi v Automotive Rentals, 115 A.D.2d 596; Thayer v Collett, 41 A.D.2d 581; Potter v Clark, 19 A.D.2d 585). The interests of justice and judicial economy would best be served by a joint trial of these actions. Mangano, J.P., Thompson, Kunzeman and Eiber, JJ., concur.
