Brylawski v. Ellis

In this appeal from the Circuit Court for Montgomery County, the appellants, who were defendants below, having been sued by a Mrs. Balentine, a real estate broker, for commissions claimed by the latter, brought into the suit by third-party claim the appellee, another broker. The basis of the appellants’ claim against the appellee was that they had already paid him a real estate commission for procuring the same sale of real estate which the plaintiff claimed she had procured, and that if the plaintiff’s claim against them should prevail, they would be entitled to restitution from the appellee.
