Ardwin v. Englert

Court of Appeals of the State of New York
Jun 17, 1982
56 N.Y.2d 936 (N.Y. 1982)

Opinion

Decided June 17, 1982

Appeal from the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the Third Judicial Department, FREDERICK B. BRYANT, J.

Robert J. Hines for appellants.

Dirk A. Galbraith for respondent.


On review of submissions pursuant to rule 500.2 (b) of the Rules of the Court of Appeals (22 N.Y.CRR 500.2 [b]), judgment appealed from and order of the Appellate Division brought up for review affirmed, with costs. The record is insufficient as a matter of law to support a finding that at the time the contract was entered into by the parties defendants had disclosed to plaintiff that they were acting as corporate officers of East Hill Foods, Inc., rather than individually. It is beyond the power of this court to make the new findings of fact which would be required to sustain a judgment in favor of defendants on a theory that several separate, unilateral contracts, rather than a single contract, were made.

Concur: Chief Judge COOKE and Judges JASEN, GABRIELLI, JONES, WACHTLER, FUCHSBERG and MEYER.
