Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York November 19, 1920 (Vousden v. United Cities Realty Corp.)

Putnam, J.:

This appeal raises a question of law, namely, the liability of a lessor of private premises for subsequent personal injuries from a dangerous condition of the leased premises which had existed- at the time of the demise.

Mrs. Doerle was lessee of these entire premises, 91-93 Boerum place, over which the defendant retained no control.
