    Appeal from Municipal Court, Borough of Manhattan, Seventh District.
    Action by Elliott Schenck against Louis Eischer. From a judgment for defendant, plaintiff appeals.
    Reversed, and new trial ordered.
    Argued October term, 1912, before SEABURY, GUY, and BI-JUR, JJ.
    Guernsey Price, of New York City, for appellant.
    Charles Eischer, of New York City, for respondent.
   BIJUR, J.

Plaintiff sued on five causes of action arising out of a contract. The total amount claimed was over $200. The third cause of action, amounting to $30.05, was expressly admitted by defendant. Defendant set up a counterclaim of $36.

From the record it appears that the counterclaim was dismissed, whereupon plaintiff admittedly became entitled to a judgment for $30.05; yet judgment for the defendant was rendered in the sum of $22.31, consisting of $2.31 “fees” and $20 “extra fees.”

Judgment reversed, and new trial ordered, with costs to appellant to abide the event. All concur.
