Reiss v. Mackay

Supreme Court, Appellate Term, First Department
Apr 4, 1946
187 Misc. 360 (N.Y. App. Term 1946)

Opinion

April 4, 1946.

Appeal from the Municipal Court of the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, GARRISON, J.

Morris Wagman for appellants.

Emanuel M. Parker and Sidney S. Goldstein for respondents.


MEMORANDUM


The proof of the landlords' ownership of the premises is sufficient. The "immediate and personal use" required by subdivision (d) of section 8 of the Commercial Rent Law (L. 1945, ch. 3, as amd. by L. 1946, ch. 272) refers to use immediately upon removal of the tenant, not to use immediately upon acquiring title. The final order cannot be sustained upon the ground that the landlords failed to show good faith; from the record it appears that the court below did not pass upon that question.

The final order should be reversed and a new trial ordered, with $30 costs to appellants to abide the event.

SHIENTAG, McLAUGHLIN and HECHT, JJ., concur.

Order reversed, etc.
