Kaplan v. Stogop Realty Co.

133 Misc. 611, 233 N.Y.S. 113, 1929 N.Y. Misc. LEXIS 661
Appellate Terms of the Supreme Court of New York·Decided February 7, 1929·Published

Opinion

Per Curiam.

Plaintiffs were not transient persons within the meaning of the common-law rule which makes the innkeeper an insurer of the property of his guests. (Hancock v. Rand, 94 N. Y. 1; Crapo v. Rockwell, 48 Misc. 1.) Whether the defendant hotel is liable for the value of the stolen property on the ground of negligence is not before us.

Judgment reversed and a new trial ordered, with thirty dollars costs to appellants to abide the event.

All concur; present, Delehanty, Lydon and Crain, JJ.
