Whitely v. Lobue

Citation291 N.Y.S.2d 791,30 A.D.2d 552
PartiesRoberta WHITELY et al., etc., Respondents, v. Andrew LOBUE et al., Appellants.
Decision Date13 May 1968
CourtNew York Supreme Court Appellate Division

Austin & DuPont, Mineola, for plaintiffs-respondents; Clifford A. Royael, Mineola, of counsel.

Leahey & Johnson, New York City, for defendants-appellants.

Order of the Supreme Court, Nassau County, dated September 8, 1967, which, on reargument, adhered to the original decision granting plaintiffs' motion for summary judgment (directing an assessment of damages), reversed insofar as appealed from, on the law, without costs, and plaintiffs' motion denied. Appeal from order of said court dated July 31, 1967 dismissed, without costs. The order was superseded by the order dated September 8, 1967, which granted reargument. In our opinion, the issues in this action should be tried and determined by a jury (see Pfaffenbach v. White Plains Express Corp., 17 N.Y.2d 132, 269 N.Y.S.2d 132, 269 N.Y.S.2d 115; Rosenthal v. Monastra, 27 A.D.2d 749, 277 N.Y.S.2d 432; Gerard v. Inglese, 11 A.D.2d 381, 206 N.Y.S.2d 879).

BRENNAN, BENJAMIN and MARTUSCELLO, JJ., concur.

CHRIST, Acting P.J., and RABIN, J., concur in the dismissal of the appeal from the order dated July 31, 1967; and otherwise dissent and vote to affirm the order dated September 8, 1967 insofar as appealed from.
