Watling v. Hiawatha Plaza Associates
59 N.Y.2d 964; 466 N.Y.S.2d 311; 453 N.E.2d 540; 1983 N.Y. LEXIS 3256
Watling v. Hiawatha Plaza Associates
Opinion of the Court
OPINION OF THE COURT
On review of submissions pursuant to rule 500.2 (b) of the Rules of the Court of Appeals (22 NYCRR 500.2 [g]), order reversed, with costs, and complaint reinstated. In light of defendant’s concession that paragraph 7 of the commission agreement was incorporated at its insistence, it was error for the Appellate Division to construe it strictly against the plaintiff. There are, therefore, triable issues of fact.
Concur: Chief Judge Cooke and Judges Jasen, Jones, Wachtler, Meyer and Simons.
