Supreme Court of New Jersey

Theodorus Bron, Plaintiffs-Appellants v. Harry Weintraub, Defendants-Respondents; Hudson Trading…

April 20, 196442 N.J. 87

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey reversed the lower courts and remanded, holding that Hudson Trading Corp. and Frank Altomare are constructive trustees of the disputed parcels and must convey title to the householders upon payment of the $400 they gave the Weintraub heirs plus interest. The decision rests on the deceptive conduct of Hudson and public policy against heir‑hunting.
