Solomon M. Pollock et al., Appellants, v. Thomas C. Platt, as President, Etc., Respondent.
    Municipal Courts — Jurisdiction — Submission of controversy — Necessity for affidavit.
    Municipal Court Act of the city of New York (L. 1902, ch. 580) § 241,
    Appeal by the plaintiffs from a judgment in favor of the defendant rendered in the Municipal Court of the city of New York, Eleventh District, borough of Manhattan.
    Baggott & Ryall, for appellants.
    No brief filed by respondent.
   Per Curiam.

This cause was submitted to the justice upon an agreed statement of facts, which was not, however, accompanied by the affidavit prescribed by section 241 of the Municipal Court Act. The submission was, therefore, ineffective and the justice had no authority to award a judgment thereon.

Present: Scott, Giegerich and Greehbaum:, JJ.

Judgment reversed and new trial ordered, without cost» to either party.
