OPINION

GOETTEL, District Judge.

Plaintiffs are Executors under the Will of Morris Brecher. Prior to his death, Brecher was a real estate operator. He was associated with the defendant Laikin, who was in effect his junior partner. The pair had a falling out and agreed to separate their business interests. A New Jersey property was turned over to Laikin as part of the distribution of their joint assets. Since Laikin did not have the credit standing of Brecher, it was a part of their agreement that Brecher would assist in obtaining continued financing for the property.
