Kaplowitz v. Brooklyn Bus Corporation

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Nov 1, 1934
242 App. Div. 840 (N.Y. App. Div. 1934)

Opinion

November, 1934.


Appeal from order of substitution in so far as it awards the substituted attorney $2,500 out of the amount that may be collected and in so far as it directs that he have a lien for that amount. Order modified by adding thereto the words, "without prejudice to an application to the court for a reduction in the amount of the lien in the event that a recovery for less than $10,000 is had." As so modified, the order, in so far as appealed from, is affirmed, without costs. If less than $10,000 be recovered, an allowance of $2,500 would seem to be unfair and inequitable. Lazansky, P.J., Young, Scudder, Tompkins and Davis, JJ., concur.
