Horn v. Danziger
Appellate Terms of the Supreme Court of New York
Appeal by plaintiff from a judgment of the Municipal Court of the city of New York, borough of Manhattan, eighth district, dismissing the complaint on plaintiff’s evidence.
1Opinion of the CourtPendleton, J.
The action is against the owner for damages for personal injuries caused by falling in the entrance hall of defendant’s building. That the building is the usual apartment house is fairly inferable from the evidence, and is nowhere denied. The witness Mrs. Glaser occupied an apartment on the ground floor on the right hand or westerly side of the building. Her dining-room door opens into this entrance hall, and a janitor of the building resides in the basement. That defendant retained control of the hall is indicated by the contract for alterations in evidence in the case, and not denied.
