Helmig v. Fanning
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided October 21, 1938
255 A.D. 766; 7 N.Y.S.2d 514; 1938 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 5145
Helmig v. Fanning

Opinion of the Court

Allegations sufficient to constitute a cause of action were set forth in the complaint. It is quite apparent that the court misunderstood the opening statement of counsel for the plaintiff, otherwise the complaint would not have been dismissed without the introduction of any testimony. Judgment unanimously reversed and a new trial ordered, with costs to the appellant to abide the event. Present — Martin, P. J., O’Malley, Glennon, Untermyer and Callahan, JJ.
