Hanover Square Antiques, Ltd. v. Insalaco
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided March 22, 2005
16 A.D.3d 258; 791 N.Y.S.2d 545; 2005 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 3030
Hanover Square Antiques, Ltd. v. Insalaco

Opinion of the Court

Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Leland DeGrasse, J.), entered February 2, 2004, which granted defendants’ motion to dismiss the complaint, unanimously affirmed, without costs.

The claims for breach of warranty and fraud were untimely (UCC 2-725 [1]), since plaintiff commenced this action more than four years after the sale of the painting, when the causes accrued. Moreover, the contract did not fall within the future performance exception of UCC 2-725 (2), since there was no express warranty of future performance in the invoice of sale (Rosen v Spanierman, 894 F2d 28 [2d Cir 1990]). Concur — Tom, J.P., Andrias, Saxe, Friedman and Nardelli, JJ.
