222 A.D. 793 Court N.Y. App. Div. English

Majority

p. 793
Harry E. Freshman, Appellant, v. Michael E. Reiburn, Respondent.

Judgment reversed and a new trial granted, with costs to the appellant to abide the event on the ground that the evidence did not disclose an arrangement necessarily illegal or corrupt. The most we can say is that the arrangement evidenced a disregard of sound ethical principles. Whether it involved illegality or a corrupt purpose was a question for the jury to determine. All concur. Present — Hubbs, P. J., Clark, Sears, Taylor and Sawyer, JJ.
