Dunford v. Townsend

112 S.E.2d 14, 100 Ga. App. 550, 1959 Ga. App. LEXIS 662
Court of Appeals of Georgia·Decided October 27, 1959·No. 37800·Published·Cited by 6 cases

Opinion

Felton, Chief Judge.

The real-estate sale contract in the present case forming the basis of an action for real-estate commissions against the purchaser therein is too indefinite to be enforceable and therefore creates no obligation to pay commissions so as to sustain such an action since the sale contract provides that the purchaser would assume two loans, one of $500 at $25 per month and another of approximately $14,600, payable $93 per month. Morgan v. Hemphill, 214 Ga. 555 (105 S. E. 2d 580); C. V. Nalley, Inc. v. Schoen, 215 Ga. 513 (111 S. E. 2d 40). The court did not err in directing a verdict *551 against the plaintiff broker and in favor of the defendant purchaser for the earnest money deposited with the broker by him and in denying the broker’s amended motion for new trial.

Decided October 27, 1959. T. M. Flournoy, Owen G. Roberts, Jr., for plaintiff in error. Davis <& Davis, Lennie L. Davis, Walter E. Nitcher, contra.

Judgment affirmed.

Quillian and Nichols, JJ., concur.
