Chelsea Hotel Corp. v. Fellows
Appellate Terms of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided December 10, 1959
21 Misc. 2d 281; 199 N.Y.S.2d 790; 1959 N.Y. Misc. LEXIS 2436

Counsel

Hyman Joseph for appellant., Leonard Stern for respondent.

Chelsea Hotel Corp. v. Fellows

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

We agree with the tenant-appellant that a demand for a jury trial was timely made on the adjourned date for the return of the precept because prior to that time there had been no joinder of issue on the precept. However in stipulating for the adjournment it is clear that the tenant’s counsel *282intended to waive the right to demand a jury and we see no occasion to disturb the court’s ruling to that effect.

The final order should be affirmed, with $20 costs.

Concur — Steuer, J. P., Aurelio and Tilzer, JJ.

Final order affirmed, etc.
