Description
[43 N.Y.2d 260 Page 262] Opinion OF THE COURT In an action on an alleged oral agreement to pay plaintiff a 5% fee for his participation in the obtaining by defendant of a $41 million construction contract, defendant moves under CPLR 3212 for summary judgment based on the Statute of Frauds (General Obligations Law, § 5-701, subds 1, 10). Plaintiff's claim arises out of his asserted role, varyingly described, in procuring for defendant a contract to build a chemical plant in Saudi Arabia. Supreme Court denied the motion; a unanimous Appellate Division reversed; and plaintiff appeals.
