SILVERSTEIN v. FLAT IRON ACQUISITION

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Dec 21, 2000
278 A.D.2d 144 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000)

Opinion

December 21, 2000.

Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Louise Gruner Gans, J.), entered April 7, 2000, which denied plaintiff's motion for summary judgment, unanimously modified, on the law, and upon a search of the record, to the extent of granting defendants-respondents summary judgment dismissing plaintiff's complaint, and otherwise affirmed, with one bill of costs payable by plaintiff. The Clerk is directed to enter judgment in favor of defendants-respondents dismissing the complaint as against them.

David J. Mark, for plaintiff-appellant.

Jeffrey Turkel, for defendants-respondents.

Before: Nardelli, J.P., Williams, Ellerin, Lerner, Rubin, JJ.


Defendants were the manager and leasing agent for the subject premises. These duties did not extend to acting as broker for plaintiff with respect to the sale and purchase of interests in the building. Therefore, defendants did not owe plaintiff a fiduciary duty with respect to their purchase of the interest at issue (see, Dancy v. Aldhous, 279 App. Div. 1066).

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
