1961(O’Kara v. Derschug, 232 App. Div. 31 , 248 N. Y.

1957As such relief rests in the sound discretion of the court, being a practice rule, the purpose of which is to require the pleading to be in such form that the party may make its denials with clearness and certainty (O’Hara v. Derschug, 232 App. Div. 31 ; Medin v. De Gennaro, 3 Misc 2d 40 ), it seems that the pleading, as it is now constituted, falls within such purpose and definition and need not further be segregated.

1931It was not intended, we think, that the opportunity of a defendant to utilize that right should depend solely upon the will of a plaintiff; nor should the courts thwart the legislative purpose by a narrow interpretation of a practice rule nor by the use of a discretion too restricted in scope.” In Deuscher v. Cammerano ( 256 N.
