Dessar v. Hirsch

Dessar v. Hirsch
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided May 15, 1914
163 A.D. 879
Dessar v. Hirsch

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam:

We think there was a question of fact as to whether the person writing the letter was an agent of the decedent and authorized to make a lease of the property for her, which was fairly submitted to the jury, and its verdict should not be disturbed. It follows that the determination of the Appellate Term reversing the order denying a motion for a new trial and dismissing the complaint should be reversed, with costs in this court and in the Appellate Term, and the order of the City Court affirmed. Present — Ingraham, P. J., Laughlin, Clarke, Scott and Dowling, JJ. Determination reversed, with costs in this court and in the Appellate Term, and order of City Court affirmed. Order to be settled on notice.
