Siegel & Hodges v. Hodges
New York Court of Appeals · Decided March 2, 1961
9 N.Y.2d 747; 174 N.E.2d 533

Siegel & Hodges v. Hodges

Opinion of the Court

Judgment affirmed, without costs; no opinion.

Concur: Chief Judge Desmond and Judges Dye, Fitld, Froessel, Van Voorhis and Foster. Judge Burke dissents in the following memorandum: The complaint states a cause of action for services performed but any recovery must be limited to the value of services rendered by Siegel alone. I do not think that Special Term and the majority are correct in holding that Siegel can bring an action in his individual capacity.
