Head Matter:
Morris Emsig, Appellant, v. Sarah Fuchs, Also Known as Sadie Fuchs, Respondent.
Supreme Court, Appellate Term, First Department,
May 12, 1936.
Jackson & Lester [Irwin D. Lester of counsel], for the appellant.
Max Fuchs, for the respondent.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
An action on a bond secured by a mortgage on realty is maintainable under sections 1077-b and 1083-b of the Civil Practice Act when an action to foreclose a mortgage would be main- tamable. Moreover, the defendant, where the action is on a bond, must prove reasonable market value of the property by way of set-off.
Judgment reversed and a new trial ordered, with thirty dollars costs to appellant to abide the event.
All concur. Present — Levy, Hammer and Callahan, JJ.
