Jenkin Contracting Co. v. Sixth Avenue & 57th Street Corp.
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided June 9, 1953
282 A.D. 662; 122 N.Y.S.2d 126; 1953 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 4570
Jenkin Contracting Co. v. Sixth Avenue & 57th Street Corp.

Opinion of the Court

While the “consent” of the owner, which is the predicate of a lien in favor of a contractor under section 3 of the Lien Law, need not amount to a contractual relationship, we think that the trial court properly decided on the facts of this ease and that the owner had not given his “ consent ” within the requirement of the statute. Judgment, so far as appealed from, unanimously affirmed, with costs. Present — Peek,

P. J., Glennon, Dore, Cohn and Breitel, JJ. [See post, p. 760.]
