New York Court of Appeals
Alvord and Swift, Appellant v. Stewart M. Muller Construction Company, Inc., Defendants, and New York…
December 21, 197846 N.Y.2d 276
Summary
The Court affirmed the Appellate Division's grant of summary judgment on the plaintiff's sixth cause of action, holding that no intentional interference with contractual relations was alleged or proved and that the plaintiff lacked privity with the owner. Separate concurring and dissenting opinions argued that the summary judgment should have been denied to allow discovery of intent.
