Rapid Fireproof Door Co. v. Largo Corp.

The plaintiff in this action seeks to establish and foreclose a mechanic’s lien upon real property owned by the defendant Largo Corporation, for materials which have been used by the defendant in the erection of a building. A judgment in favor of the plaintiff has been reversed by the Appellate Division and the complaint dismissed. That court has held that the plaintiff did not furnish these materials “ with the consent or at the request of the owner thereof [of the premises],” and that consequently there is no basis for a claim of statutory lien. (Lien Law [Cons. Laws, chap. 33], section 3.)
