142 N.Y.S. 342 | N.Y. App. Term. | 1913
The plaintiff in this action claims that the defendants by their duly authorized agent agreed to lease certain premises for one year, that all the terms of the lease were agreed upon, that a deposit on the lease was made, and that the defendants are consequently liable for the rent of the premises, though they refused to sign the final lease and never occupied the premises. The defendants deny that the alleged agent had any authority to bind them, and the alleged agent denies that he attempted to bind them or agreed upon all the terms of the lease.
Judgment should be reversed, and a new trial ordered, with costs to appellants to abide the event. All concur. '
