DISSEN9S
CHIEF JUSTICE DOES NOT AGREE
WITH COLLEAGUES ON FIRE
CLAIM QUESTION.

A majority decision OF the Supreme
Court by Justice Perry, Justice Wilder
concurring, disallows the claim OF the
Yee Sing Stables to "a share in the
fire claim award of $500 to the estate
of William Brash. The claim was on
account of the loss vi buildings erected
by the appellants as lessees. In the
syllabus the majority states the law
thus:
"JInder Act Is of the Laws of 1901 a
lessee whose only right with reference
to the buildings ON the dentised land
is to use them during the uneXpired
term of the lease, is not entitled to
damages for the loss of such use.'
Chief Justice Hartwell dissenting,
holds in part:
Does the act prohibit a claim for
! the kind of property consisting in a
right to it's use and refer exclusively
to losses of property owned by the
/ claimant? ] think it includes losses
FOR the destruction of any kind OF
property. A lessee is subjected to loss
of his property by the destruction OF
buildings on leased premises losing
further opportunity to exercise his
right to use and occupy them for the
balance of the term, the reversionel
losing his reversionary right in the
buildings. Each was right in anC
10 the buildings and each right haC
value.
II think that the act allows claim!
for loss of that kind of property con
sisting in a right to its use to the ex
clusion of its owner although not fol
loss of the use of property which i,
not exclusive. In this view the aware
of $500, fixed as the value of the build
ings, would entitle the 1essees to in
terest upon that sum at legal rate
from the date of the destruction o
the buildings until the termination o
the lease, the principal, less the in
terest, going to the reversioner."
