Eviction. Fulton Civil Court. Before Judge Camp.

Robert S. Travis, for appellant.

Harris C. Bostic, for appellee.


A lessor who is financially assisted and regulated in the construction, financing and operation of its apartments pursuant to Section 221 (d) (3) of the National Housing Act, 12 U.S.C. § 17151 (d) (3), may not fail to renew a lessee's lease and evict her without a showing of good cause. McQueen v. Druker, 438 F.2d 781.

The appellant contends there was sufficient evidence to establish that the appellee had good cause to evict the appellant; however, the testimony in question was hearsay and had no probative value.

Judgment reversed. Hall, P. J., and Pannell, J., concur.

ARGUED JULY 6, 1972 — DECIDED SEPTEMBER 15, 1972.
