189 A. 54 (N.J. 1937)

Opinion

Argued October 23, 1936 —

Decided January 22, 1937.

Upon the facts of this case held, that no valid consideration was shown for the reduction in the amount of rent reserved in the lease by respondent to appellants.

On appeal from the Supreme Court, whose opinion is reported in 117 N.J.L. 23.

For the appellants, Joseph Grossman.

For the respondent, Mortimer L. Mahler.


The facts, and the arguments thereon, adequately appear in the opinion of the Supreme Court, ubi supra. We find ourselves unable to perceive the distinction in principle or in essential facts, between this case and the recent decision of this court in Haynes Auto Repair Co. v. Wheels, Inc., 115 N.J.L. 447 , a unanimous decision of this court.

The judgment under review will be affirmed.

For affirmance — THE CHANCELLOR, CHIEF JUSTICE, PARKER, CASE, BODINE, HETFIELD, DEAR, WELLS, WOLFSKEIL, RAFFERTY, COLE, JJ. 11.

For reversal — None.
