Nichols v. Jamestown Mutual Insurance Company

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department
Mar 19, 1947
271 App. Div. 1059 (N.Y. App. Div. 1947)

Opinion

March 19, 1947.

Present — Taylor, P.J., Dowling, Harris, McCurn and Larkin, JJ.


Judgment affirmed, with costs. Memorandum: The evidence, coupled with the admission in the answer, was sufficient to make a question of fact as to the authority of the claims adjuster. All concur, except Harris, J., who dissents and votes for reversal and for dismissal of the complaint on the ground that the pleadings and the evidence do not support a finding of the authority of Snyder to act on behalf of the defendant in making the agreement alleged. (The judgment appealed from is for plaintiff in an action for breach of contract.)
