Louis Susman and Jacob Stein opposed.

Motion for leave to appeal from that portion of the order of the Appellate Division affirming Special Term’s order denying plaintiff’s application pursuant to CPLR 5014 for leave to commence an action on the original judgment denied, without costs, on the ground that CPLR 5014 is inapplicable and plaintiff requires no permission to institute such an action against one who was not an original party in the case. (Koenig v. Wagener, 126 App. Div. 772 ; Saxe v. Peck, 139 App. Div. 419 ; Carpenter v. Butler, 29 Hun 251 .)
