Defendant moved for summary judgment as to any recovery above $8,291.87, the limitation set in the Warsaw Convention of Oct. 12, 1929, on International Air Transportation (49 Stat. 3000). The motion was granted by the Special Term for New York County, and affirmed by a divided court in the Appellate Division. The Court of Appeals affirmed the order, Conway and Lewis, JJ., dissenting.
