Tang V. Avitable

Anthony G. Avitable, plaintiff (appellee), sought to recover damages from copartners Joe W. Tang, Joe Y. Wey, and Sam Dong, for the breach of a contract to sell a nightclub business. The cause was tried to the court without a jury and plaintiff was awarded $32,300 in damages. The partners perfected this appeal and raise several interesting questions of law. For convenience we shall refer to the parties by their last names.
