Matter of Mayor, Aldermen, and Commonalty, N.Y.

New York Court of Appeals

Decided October 11, 1910PublishedCited by 2 opinions

Cross-appeals from an order of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the first judicial department, entered May 6, 1910, which modified and affirmed as modified an order of Special Term in so far as it allowed interest on certain awards made in the above entitled proceeding.

1Opinion of the Court

Order affirmed, without costs. The language of section 1001 of the charter of New York city, which limits the right to interest in regular course to the period of six months, unless within that time a demand shall be made, has no application to the period following a demand made after the expiration of six mouths, and does not forbid the allowance of interest in the latter case from the time when a proper demand is made; no opinion.

Concur: Cullen, Ch. J., Haight, Yann, Werner, Hisoook and Chase, JJ. Absent: Willard Bartlett, J.
