November 12, 1940.
Present — Lazansky, P.J., Hagarty, Carswell, Johnston and Taylor, JJ.
In an action for false arrest and imprisonment, judgment for defendant unanimously affirmed, with costs. The showing as contained in the depositions and information called upon the defendant as a justice of the peace to make a judicial determination, for which he cannot be held liable even though it were erroneous. ( Vittorio v. St. Regis Paper Co., 239 N.Y. 148, 152; Swart v. Rickard, 148 id. 264; Smith v. Bell Fyfe Foundry Co., 127 App. Div. 278; McCarg v. Burr, 106 id. 275, 279.)
