Dickinson v. Sperling

City Court of New York, New York County
Mar 30, 1936
158 Misc. 905 (N.Y. City Ct. 1936)

Opinion

March 30, 1936.

Ezra Grossman, for the plaintiffs.

Rabenold Scribner [ Edward J. Malament of counsel], for the defendants.


I am satisfied that the breakfast rolls sold by the defendant Goldman were sold to the grandmother of the infant plaintiff as the agent of John Dickinson, Sr. Under the authorities in this jurisdiction and particularly under Gimenez v. Great A. P. Tea Co. ( 264 N.Y. 390), such a sale would not give rise to a cause of action by John Dickinson, Jr., under the implied warranties of section 96 Pers. Prop. of the Personal Property Law against Isaac Goldman, the grocer. Neither would it give rise to a loss of service action by John Dickinson against Isaac Goldman. ( Smith v. Hanson, 228 A.D. 634.)

With reference to the action founded on negligence against Sperling Gertzkis, the manufacturers of the rolls, the evidence establishes the due care demanded by the law so as to establish the freedom from negligence of the bakers.

Complaints dismissed.
