Zinz-Barta v. Barta
New York Court of Appeals
Zinz-Barta v. Barta, 54 N.Y.2d 945 (N.Y. 1981)
429 N.E.2d 832; 445 N.Y.S.2d 153; 1981 N.Y. LEXIS 3148
Zinz-Barta v. Barta
Opinion of the Court
On summary consideration, order affirmed, with costs. On the facts of this case, it appears that the trial court properly imposed a constructive trust for the benefit of the plaintiff to the extent of one-half interest in the co-operative apartment held in the defendant’s name. Furthermore, it cannot be said that the trial court abused its discretion in making an award of alimony in the amount of $250 per week to the plaintiff.
Concur: Chief Judge Cooke and Judges Jasen, Gabrielli, Jones, Wachtler, Fuchsberg and Meyer.
