Kellogg v. Michaels

Motion to reargue is granted. Upon the reargument it is urged by defendants that the assignment of a partial interest in a claim for money only, though it works an equitable assignment, is now cognizable at law in this State (citing Blake v. Weiden, 291 N. Y. 134; Dunlop v. James, 174 N. Y. 411); so that the holder of such an equitable assignment *820must be joined as a necessary party in an action by the claimant (citing Moore v. Taylor, 175 App. Div. 37; Sisson v. Hassett, 155 Misc. 667; Townsend v. Halbert, 194 Misc. 1033, etc.).

The merit of such argument, however, is limited to those causes…
