Hamburger v. Hellman

The summons in this action demands a judgment for $500 and interest. The pleadings are oral. Plaintiff’s bill of particulars sets forth claims aggregating $507.33. Under the decision of this court in Pierson v. Hughes, 88 N. Y. Supp. 1059, the Municipal Court has no jurisdiction in the action, and the judgment herein must be reversed, and the complaint dismissed, with costs, but, in order to settle this question, with leave to the respondent to appeal to the Appellate Division.
