Blessington v. McCrory Stores Corp.

279 A.D. 806, 109 N.Y.S.2d 719, 1952 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 4909
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York·Decided January 28, 1952·Published·Cited by 13 cases

Opinion

The action for breach of warranty, even though it rests on a tortious or wrongful act committed by the defendant is independent of an action for negligence. The wrongful act is not neglect, and privity is an essential to recovery. (Greco v. Kresge Co., 277 R. V. 26, 30, 31, 34, 35; Gimenez v. Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co., 264 R. Y. 390; Rinaldi v. Mohican Co., 225 N. Y. 70, 75.) This action is controlled [807] by subdivisions 1 and 3 of section 48 of the Civil Practice Act, the six-year statute. Carswell, Acting P. J., Johns ton, Adel, Wenzel and MacCrate, JJ., concur. [See post, pp. 918, 1009.]
