Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided November 15, 1913
159 A.D. 881; 143 N.Y.S. 1011
Cohen v. Ratner

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam:

At the close of the plaintiff’s case he had made out a prima facie case, and there was no evidence presented by the defendants which established any defense. There should, therefore, have been a direction of a verdict in favor of the plaintiff. The judgment and order should be reversed and a new trial ordered, with costs to appellant to abide the event. Present — Ingraham, P. J., Clarke, Scott, Dowling and Hotchkiss, JJ. Judgment and order reversed, new trial ordered, costs to appellant to abide event. Order to be settled on notice.
