Westinghouse Electric Supply Co. v. Circle Painting Co.

244 A.D. 766

• Court: Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
• Decided: May 15, 1935
• Status: Published

Opinion

Per Curiam.

In the absence of any showing of facts by the respondents that the sum of $4,293.80 remains unpaid under the contract with the city, the affidavits interposed by the city alleging that only $2,938.30 remains unpaid sufficiently raise an issue of fact in respect to the excess claimed to be due. The plaintiff and the defendant G. & G. Electric Supply Co., Inc., having consented to waive the excess of their aggregate claims, amounting to $2,992.54, over the amount concededly in the city's hands, the order appealed from should be modified to that extent, and as so modified affirmed, without costs. Since there is an issue of fact as to whether there is any excess applicable to the claim of the defendant Sterling National Bank and Trust Company of New York, the order in its favor should be reversed, with twenty dollars costs and disbursements, and its cross-motion denied, with ten dollars costs.
