Landlord and Tenant.
Before Judge LOeW,

before Judge LOew.
Richard Jones Us. Henry Dauts.-Ths was a sum-
mary proceeding under the statute to recover pos
session OF store and premises in Grand street, by
reason Of the non-payment Of $3.50, being balance
Of one quarters rent. The defendant admitted that
the amount claimed by the plalntir was due in &C.
cordance with the lease, but conended that he was
released from the payment thereof In consequence
OF the landlords neglect to repair the roof OF the
house in question. as he was bound to do by The
terms Of the lease, and on account of which neglect
the rain came through and rendered two rooms on
the top floor untenantable; and also on the further
ground that on or about the lst of March the plain
tin took f0rcibe possession Of the front basement
and Ii at present altering the same to convert 1t
into a store fhe plaintin did not deny what is
set forth by the defendant above but his counsel
insisted that neither OF the grounds set up by the
defendant could be interpOsed in a proceeding OF
this kind.
Judge Loew rendered the following decision In the
case:--lt is now well settled that In summary pro-
ceedings to recover the possession OF demised pre-
mlses, the tenant cannot set up as defence
breach OF the landlords agreement TO make repairs.
He cannot withhold both the rent and the posses.
l64; People vs. Kelsey, Ia add. p. 373. breach Of
the agreement on the part Of the lessor would con-
stitute no defence, even In an ordinary action to
cover the rent reserved, and the lessee could only
recover the damages actually sustained. II Johns,
552; "a Barb, 80: 81 Barb, 345 I3 n. y, 15l. IT.
therefore, the tenant had other defence judg-
ment would have TO be rendered for the landlord.
But 1t seems the landlord wrongfully took posses
sion OF part OF the premises, to which the tenant
was lawfully entitled by the terms Of the lease
pension OF the whole rent Notwithstanding the
tenant continued to occupy the residue of the pre-
misses. Christopher vs. Austin, II n Y, PIG. AS 1t
is essential in these proceedings ascertain whether
any, and If SO how much rent Is due, and In CON-
ing at this the tenant ought TO have the advantage
of any equitable answer he may have to the claim
for rent it is competent for him to plead and show
such eviction. Blair vs. ClaXton Is n. Y, 529
Judgment must therefore be rendered for the tenant
