Legal Opinion

Heller Candy Co. v. 385 Gerard Avenue Realty Corp.

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York

Decided November 10, 1953PublishedCited by 2 opinions

1Per curiam

The defendant landlord appeals from a judgment in favor of the plaintiff tenant rendered after a trial without a jury. The recovery was for rent paid during the period from May 1, 1947 to April 30, 1950, and claimed to have been in excess of the fixed emergency rate.

The inference may be drawn from the stipulated facts that no hearing was held by the arbitrator. The arbitration agreement contained a provision that a hearing was not required but the Business Rent Law then, as now, prohibited such a waiver. (Business Rent Law, § 15, as amd. by L. 1947, ch. 823, § 1.)
