Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York · decided 1998-11-23

Cited by 2 later decisions — most recently May 2005

Key passage — most relied on by later courts

“[t]he trial evidence amply supports the Supreme Court’s determination, inter alia, that the appellants Israel Wein-stock and JB Trading International, Ltd., had no interest in 4200 Avenue K Realty Corporation or the property owned by that corporation. The terms of, and the circumstances surrounding, the assignments through which the appellants claim ownership rendered those assignments void as the products of coercion and overreaching.”

¶1—In an action, inter alia, for a judgment declaring the ownership interests of the parties in 4200 Avenue K Realty Corporation, the defendants appeal from stated portions of a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Douglass, J.), entered June 24, 1997, which, after a nonjury trial, inter alia, declared that they had no interest in the corporation.

¶2Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, insofar as appealed from, with costs.

¶3The trial evidence amply supports the Supreme Court’s determination, inter alia, that the appellants Israel Weinstock and JB Trading International, Ltd., had no interest in 4200 Avenue K Realty Corporation or the property owned by that corporation. The terms of, and the circumstances surrounding, the assignments through which the appellants claim ownership rendered those assignments void as the products of coercion and overreaching (see, Weinstock v Weinstock, 167 AD2d 394).

¶4The appellants’ remaining contentions are without merit. Bracken, J. P., Ritter, Santucci and Altman, JJ., concur. [See, 173 Misc 2d 1.]
