Richard S. Snierson & a. v. Robert T. Scruton & a.

Summary

The court held that the allegations adequately pleaded fraud and negligent misrepresentation against the sellers and an unfair-or-deceptive-trade-practices claim against the realtor and brokerage. It affirmed dismissal of the commission-disgorgement claim for lack of standing, rejected private and common-law claims based on the real-estate disclosure statutes, and affirmed dismissal or waiver of the remaining claims. The judgment was therefore affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded.
