New York Court of Appeals
Honeyman v. Hanan, 3 N.E.2d 474 (N.Y. 1936)
271 N.Y. 662; 1936 N.Y. LEXIS 1383

Honeyman v. Hanan

Opinion of the Court

Motion to amend remittitur granted. Return of remittitur requested and when returned it will be amended by adding thereto the following: “A question under the Federal Constitution was presented and necessarily passed upon by this court. The plaintiff contended that chapter 794 of the Laws of the State of New York, enacted in 1933, as amended (Sections 1083-a and 1083-b of Civil Practice Act), impair the obligations of contracts, and thus violate article 1, section 10, of the Constitution of the United States. This court held that such laws do not violate said provision of article 1, section 10, of the Constitution of the United States.” (See 271 N. Y. 664.)
