258 F. 962, 49 App. D.C. 62, 1919 U.S. App. LEXIS 1299

Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit·Decided May 22, 1919·No. No. 3222·Published

Opinion

VAN ORDSDEE, Associate Justice.

Appellee, plaintiff below, the owner of certain premises in the District of Columbia, as landlord brought this action to recover possession from defendant as tenant by [963] sufferance. It appears that plaintiff was at the date of the bringing of this action in the employ of the government as a war worker and required the leased premises for occupancy as a residence. It is not material, therefore, that defendant was also a war worker, since the case is ruled by our opinion in Maxwell v. Brayshaw, 49 App. D. C. -, 258 Fed. 957.

The judgment is affirmed, with costs.

Affirmed.
