Opinion

majority opinion

The Supreme Court affirmed the judgment of the Common Pleas on May 26th, 1884, in the following opinion:

Per Curiam.

The evidence is unquestioned, that the stairs were built with the consent of the plaintiff. The fact that the landlord omitted to construct a proper covering to them, whereby the plaintiff’s possession and enjoyment of the premises was interferred with, was not such an eviction as to work a suspension of of rent. Judgment affirmed.
