New York Court of Appeals

George Kralik, Appellants v. 239 East 79th Street Owners Corp., Respondent

June 16, 20055 N.Y.3d 54

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals held that the status of plaintiffs as holders of unsold cooperative shares must be determined by ordinary contract interpretation of the cooperative’s governing documents, not by compliance with 13 NYCRR part 18, and therefore reversed the summary‑judgment ruling and remanded for further proceedings.
