Chard v. Ryan-Parker Construction Company

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Feb 1, 1921
195 App. Div. 929 (N.Y. App. Div. 1921)

Opinion

February, 1921.

Present — Clarke, P.J., Laughlin, Dowling, Merrell and Greenbaum, JJ.; Clarke, P.J., and Greenbaum, dissenting.


Judgment and order affirmed, with costs. No opinion.


I dissent upon the ground that the finding of the jury that the contract in suit is not illegal and against public policy is clearly against the evidence and the weight thereof. It seems clear to me that its sole purpose was to engage political aid and that it obviously tended to secret and improper resort to public officers.
