Description
CLAGETT, Associate Judge. Plaintiff, a licensed 'business chance' and real estate broker, sued defendant for a commission claimed to be due on the sale of a rooming house business. The trial court, sitting without a jury, ordered judgment for defendant at the close of plaintiff's case. Plaintiff appeals. Defendant, Mrs. Hollingsworth, owned the business, including a lease on the premises involved, the furniture and the good will of the venture. Desiring to dispose of this business, she gave to plaintiff a 90-day, non-exclusive written listing to sell at a fixed price and specified terms. One of plaintiff's salesmen interested a Mr. James A. Creel and showed him the property. This was the first contact Mr. Creel had with the business. Mr. Creel thereupon made a written offer which differed in several important respects from the terms fixed in the listing, although the price -- $12,000 -- was the same.
