¶1 The plaintiff sues in trespass for damages for the breaking of a plate-glass window in a store owned by her but in the occupation of a tenant from year to year. The District Court of the Sixth Judicial District, in which the suit was brought, nonsuited the plaintiff, holding that, as the suit was for an injury to the reversion, the plaintiff’s action was case and not trespass. Assuming the testimony to have been as allowed by the court below, its ruling was correct. That case, and not trespass, is the proper remedy for injuries to a reversion, is elementary. The plaintiff, however, contends and has submitted the affidavit of her agent to the effect that he testified at the trial that the plaintiff had control of the outside of the building. We are not convinced by the affidavit that the statement was made by the witness. The window which was broken being a part of the store in the occupation of the tenant, the assertion of a control over it as a part of the outside of the building by the plaintiff would have been inconsistent with the light of the tenant, since such control would have implied the right of the plaintiff to remove the window, contrary even to the wish of the tenant. So important a statement, if made, could scarcely have failed *405 to impress itself on the mind of the justice who tried the •case.
¶2 Exception overruled, and case remitted to the District Court of the Sixth Judicial District with direction to enter judgment for the defendant for costs.
