Supreme Court, Appellate Term, First Department
May 28, 1931
140 Misc. 294 (N.Y. App. Term 1931)

Opinion

May 28, 1931.

Appeal from the City Court of the City of New York, County of New York.

Clark Baldwin [ John Kirkland Clark and Ganson J. Baldwin of counsel], for the appellant.

Garfield Seligson [ Maurice V. Seligson and Gustave B. Garfield of counsel], for the respondent.


The fine was improperly imposed herein to the extent that it was based on the disposal of income received after the service of the supplementary order. Income from furnished rooms is not in the category of rent reserved to the debtor as landlord under an existing lease as in the case of Stevens v. Dewey ( 13 A.D. 312). There was no proof herein that at the time of the service of the supplementary order the debtor had any enforcible agreement with any subtenant or lodger to receive future rents or income from the property.

Order reversed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements, and motion denied, with ten dollars costs to be applied upon the judgment, without prejudice to a further motion to punish for contempt with relation to any preacquired property.

All concur; present, CALLAHAN, FRANKENTHALER and UNTERMYER, JJ.
