1Opinion of the CourtProvosty, J.
Defendant leased to plaintiff a certain store building in the city of Monroe at $50 per month, with option to purchase at any time between certain fixed dates at $6,500. Plaintiff having decided to exercise the option, and called upon defendant to execute a title in his favor, and defendant having refused, plaintiff brought suit for specific performance. The defense to the suit was that defendant was only half owner of the property, the other half owners being his children, and that he was therefore unable to specifically perform. That defense was sustained by this court. Walshe v. Endom, 124…
