Brandolino v. Lindsay
California Court of Appeal
Decided January 31, 1969No. Civ. 32659PublishedCited by 13 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtWood, P. J.
This is an action for specific performance or, in the alternative, for damages for the breach of an agreement whereby defendant Newton E. Lindsay, who owned an undivided one-half interest in forty acres of land, agreed to sell the forty acres to plaintiffs for $50,000. The court denied specific performance and awarded $25,000 damages to plaintiffs against defendant Lindsay for his breach of the agreement. He appeals from the judgment.
Appellant contends that the court erred in awarding damages to plaintiffs “in equity,” and erred in applying the doctrine of election of remedies.
