Morning Blessings after a Short Night Sleep

Question

If someone was awake at night, and a quarter of an hour before dawn tried to fall asleep and managed to sleep for only one minute and then woke up, and a quarter of an hour after dawn fell asleep again for an hour, should he recite the morning blessings?

Answer

He does not recite the blessings, as even though he stayed in bed and tried to sleep, it is not considered a continuation of the sleep before dawn.
