In the Matter of HARRY ROSIN, Appellant, against JOSEPH D. McGOLDRICK, as Commissioner and State Rent Administrator of the New York Temporary State Housing Rent Commission, et al., Respondents.

In a proceeding pursuant to article 78 of the Civil Practice Act, order denying the petition to review the determination of the State Rent Administrator authorizing the subdivision of an apartment occupied by petitioner and dismissing the proceeding, and the determination of the State Rent Administrator, reversed on the law, without costs, and the matter remitted to respondent Administrator to take further proof and determine the question of the adequacy of the accommodations offered appellant, under section 57 of the Rent and Eviction Regulations. We are of opinion that the Administrator acted within his authority in promulgating section 57 of the regulations, which was in harmony with the State Residential Rent Law (L. 1946, ch. 274, as amd.) and designed to effectuate the purposes thereof, and that his determination that appellant's apartment was under-occupied, within the definition of that term in section 57, was warranted by substantial evidence. We are also of the opinion, however, that there is insufficient proof in the record submitted, respecting the size, nature and extent of the proposed accommodations and the reasonable requirements of appellant and his immediate family, upon which to predicate a finding that such accommodations were adequate for appellant's needs. A further hearing should be held, at which time the parties may submit additional evidence on that question; and findings of fact should be made by the Administrator in support of whatever determination he may reach upon the evidence. Nolan, P.J., Carswell and Schmidt, JJ., concur; Adel and Wenzel, JJ., dissent and vote to affirm. [See post, p. 1088.]
