Rella v. Greco
Opinion of the Court
—In an action, inter alia, to recover damages for unjust enrichment and breach of fiduciary duty, (1) the defendant Leo Greco appeals from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Rock-land County (Meehan, J.), dated December 11, 2000, as denied that branch of his motion which was for summary judgment dismissing the fifth cause of action insofar as asserted against
Ordered that the order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
The plaintiffs first cause of action alleged breach of fiduciary duty, resulting in the termination of the agreements between the parties. Those agreements expired in 1997 pursuant to their terms. Therefore, the termination of those agreements may not be attributable to breaches of fiduciary duty, and the Supreme Court properly granted summary judgment dismissing the first cause of action.
In his fifth cause of action, the plaintiff demanded the fair value of his shares in the dissolved corporations. The measure of damages with respect to the fifth cause of action is not before us on this appeal.
The parties’ remaining contentions are without merit. Gold-stein, J.P., Friedmann, McGinity and H. Miller, JJ., concur.
