Insurance Reparations Act, Sections 5101 to 5108, this Court lacks jurisdiction over the subject
matter of this action and Plaintiff(s) is/are expressly prohibited from maintaining this action.

SECOND AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE

Pursuant to the C.P.L.R. Sections 1411 and 1412, any damages sustained by the
Plaintiff(s) was/were caused by the culpable conduct of Plaintiff(s), including contributory
negligence or assumption of the risk, and not by the culpable conduct or negligence of the
answering Defendant(s).

THIRD AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE

harness(es) or other restraining devices, pursuant to the authority of Spier V. Barker, 35 N.Y.2d

Cross-claim against: SKY JARRETT and GLENN GOLDSTEIN

If Plaintiff(s) was caused to sustain any injury and damages as alleged in the complaint
through the negligence or culpable conduct other than the plaintiff(s)' own negligence or
culpable conduct, the alleged injury and damages were caused by the negligence or culpable
conduct of the co-defendant(s) of the answering defendant(s) named as parties to this action in
failing to properly operate, control and/or maintain their motor vehicle(s) at the time and place
and under the circumstances alleged in the complaint, and that the answering defendant(s)

N.Y.2d 143, 331 N.Y.S.2d 382 and Article 14 of the C.P.L.R. from said co-defendant(s) for all
or part of any verdict or judgment which the plaintiff(s) may recover against the answering
defendant(s).

WHEREFORE, Defendant(s) demand(s) judgment dismissing the Complaint or
diminishing the damages recoverable by Plaintiff(s) in proportion to the culpable conduct
attributable to Plaintiff(s), together with the costs and disbursements of this action, and further
demands that in the event answering Defendant(s) is/are found liable, that Defendant(s), on the
