Description
LUMMUS, Justice. The defendant excepted to the refusal of the trial Judge to direct a verdict in her favor in an action of tort for bodily injuries to a three year old boy resulting from a fall on April 7, 1929, through two loose and weak pickets in a balustrade around a second floor piazza adjoining a tenement hired from the defendant by the plaintiff's parents under a tenancy at will. The jury could have found that the piazza was not a part of the tenement hired by the plaintiff's parents, and was not hired by them in common with a family occupying another tenement on the same floor, but remained in the control of the defendant for the use of both families.
