E. R. M. Realty Co., Inc., Appellant, v. Helen R. Thompson et al., Respondents.

The controversy is justiciable, and it would appear that if it is not resolved through the medium of this declaratory judgment action, adequate relief may not

Accordingly, the complaint adequately alleged a cause of action for a declaratory judgment, and the order dismissing the complaint is unanimously reversed, with $20 costs and disbursements to the appellant, and the motion denied.
