Byrnes v. Chase National Bank

Court of Appeals of the State of New York
Jun 13, 1929
168 N.E. 423 (N.Y. 1929)

Opinion

Argued May 29, 1929

Decided June 13, 1929

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Appellate Division, First Department.

L. Barton Case for appellant.

George N. Hamlin for Chase National Bank et al., respondents.

John L. Bigelow for Ernest L. Conant et al., appearing specially.


No appeal having been taken to the Appellate Division from the judgment of the trial court dismissing the complaint as to the defendants Conant and Elliman, the question of the liability of said defendants is not before this court, and they have been erroneously designated as respondents on this appeal.

The judgment of the Appellate Division dismissing the complaint as to the defendants other than Conant and Elliman, should be affirmed with costs.

CARDOZO, Ch. J., POUND, CRANE, LEHMAN, KELLOGG and O'BRIEN, JJ., concur; HUBBS, J., not sitting.

Judgment accordingly.
