The fact that plaintiffs, in our opinion, have no cause of action as here asserted under the state statutes or under the Housing and Rent Act may not be conclusive against their claim. If by any reasonable inference a common-law cause of action can be spelled out of the matter pleaded and the evidence submitted, recovery should be permitted as against a motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict based on the ground that the evidence supports no cause of action where whatever was litigated was litigated by consent.
