91 Misc. 2d 130 (N.Y. App. Term 1977)

Opinion

April 12, 1977

Appeal from the Justice Court of the Town of Bedford, Westchester County, KENNETH H. LANGE, J.

Baines Lebewohl for appellants.

Dittelman, Kirwin Dittelman (Lawrence Dittelman of counsel), for respondents.

Stuart R. Shamberg for third-party defendant-respondent.


MEMORANDUM.

Appeal from order dismissed.

Judgment (see 86 Misc.2d 53) affirmed, with $25 costs.

In our opinion, the record amply supports the lower court's determination that defendants knowingly made fraudulent representations of fact upon which plaintiffs reasonably relied to their detriment. (See State St. Trust Co. v Ernst, 278 N.Y. 104; Ultramares Corp. v Touche, 255 N.Y. 170; Wechsler v Hoffman-LaRoche, Inc., 198 Misc. 540; see, also, 24 N.Y. Jur, Fraud and Deceit, §§ 142, 144, 174, 200, 288; Ann., 91 ALR 1363, 1376.)

Concur: FARLEY, P.J., GLICKMAN and GAGLIARDI, JJ.
