Opinion of the Court — Per Curiam

Per Curiam.

The complaint should not have been dismissed as against these defendants-respondents. Their communications were protected by a qualified privilege but plaintiff’s proof made out a prima facie case of malice.

(Ashcroft v. Hammond, 197 N. Y. 488 .) The question was for the jury.

The judgments should be reversed and a new trial granted with costs to abide the event.

Lehman, Ch. J., Loughran, Finch, Rippey, Lewis, Conway and Desmond, JJ., concur.

Judgments reversed, etc.
