j MAGISTERIAL COMMENT. By Telegraph—Press Association. AUCKLAND, April 11. Giving reserved judgment in a claim for a week's rent in lieu of notice against a tenant who had pleaded that he was compelled to ieave in consequence of vermin, Mr I Kettle; S.M., said that in Jaw there ! was an implied undertaking by a landlord in Respect to an unfurnished bouse that such was frse from vermin, but for some reason difficult to understand this was not so in the case of furnished houses. He suggested an amendment of the Jaw so that in the absence of any agreement there should be such an implied undertaking in respect to both furnished and unfurnished houses. He also recommended tenants to get such an undertaking in writing before entering into occupation.
