Peltz v. Rosenberg
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided April 15, 1921
196 A.D. 949; 187 N.Y.S. 947
Peltz v. Rosenberg

Opinion of the Court

Without deciding whether after October 1, 1920, a suit in equity would lie *950by a landlord to enforce specific performance of a covenant to surrender and vacate dwelling property in New York city, the subsequent deposit of the rent after proceedings in the Municipal Court renders it unconscionable to continue to urge other security for such rent in this equity proceeding. Therefore, this appeal is dismissed, but without costs. Jenks, P. J., Mills, Putnam, Blaekmar and Kelly, JJ., concur.
