Klotz v. El Morocco International, Ltd.
New York Supreme Court · Decided December 6, 1968
63 Misc. 2d 489; 312 N.Y.S.2d 60; 1968 N.Y. Misc. LEXIS 1007

Counsel

Anthony G. Di Falco for appellant. Herman Brothers for respondent.

Klotz v. El Morocco International, Ltd.

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The record clearly establishes the defendant exercised that degree of ordinary care required of a bailee for mutual benefit. Consequently, the subsequent loss by defendant of the vehicle here involved was not occasioned by any negligence on the part of the def endant bailee.

The judgment should be reversed, with $30 costs, and judgment directed for defendant, with costs.

Concur — Streit, Gold and Hoestadter, JJ.

Judgment reversed, etc.
