A Manhattan Commercial Division judge invalidated a $2 million finder’s fee claimed on the basis of an oral agreement purportedly entered four years prior to the sale of an iconic Pittsburgh office tower.
Justice Shirley Werner Kornreich granted summary judgment last week to the defendants in Multi Capital Group v. Karasick, 652598/2011, asserting “the lack of a continuing causal connection between plaintiff’s involvement in 2007 and the eventual sale in 2011 precludes plaintiff’s claim for a finder’s fee.”
