Mutual Life Insurance v. Fitzpatrick

Opinion of the Court

Memorandum Per Curiam.

The mortgagee was entitled to the rents by reason of the agreement of the mortgagor giving the assignment of rents and the right to re-enter upon default. There was a default and demand for possession and therefore the tenant should have paid the rent to the mortgagee.

Judgment reversed and judgment directed for plaintiff as claimed in the summons, with costs.

Shientag, McLaughlin and Hecht, JJ., concur.
