v.
ALLEN TEMPLE DEVELOPMENT.

47334.

Court of Appeals of Georgia.

Argued July 6, 1972. Decided September 15, 1972.

Robert S. Travis, for appellant.

Harris C. Bostic, for appellee.

QUILLIAN, Judge.

A lessor who is financially assisted and regulated in the construction, financing and operation of its apartments pursuant to Section 221 (d) (3) of the National Housing Act, 12 USC § 17151 (d) (3), may not fail to renew a lessee's lease and evict her without a showing of good cause. McQueen v. Druker, 438 F2d 781.

The appellant contends there was sufficient evidence to establish that the appellee had good cause to evict the appellant; however, the testimony in question was hearsay and had no probative value.

Judgment reversed. Hall, P. J., and Pannell, J., concur.
