The plaintiff, as a real estate broker, brought this action to recover one hundred dollars as his commission for effecting the sale of premises, Eo. 1430, Prospect avenue, in behalf of the owner, the defendant.

The undisputed facts show, that the plaintiff brought one, Charles Lindner, a then intending purchaser, to Mrs. Bierling, defendant’s mother, who was authorized to act for him, with the result that the parties came to a complete understanding as to price and terms. Indeed, a deposit of $200 was given by Lindner to Mrs. Bierling and the parties separated with the understanding that a formal contract was to be drawn up, within two or three days., No memorandum or receipt had been signed by either of the parties.

Mr. Lindner changed his mind and refused to enter into any contract with the plaintiff, who stood ready to execute an agreement of sale upon the agreed terms.

• The case of Levy v. Kottman, 11 Misc. Rep. 372, seems to be decisive in disposing of this appeal. See also Diamond & Co. v. Hartley, 38 App. Div. 87.

No contract was here made between the parties, whom the plaintiff brought together. The understanding did not even constitute an option, so that neither was legally bound to carry it into effect.

The judgment must be reversed.

Fbeedmah, P. J., and Giegebich, J., concur.

Judgment reversed, and new trial ordered, with costs to appellant to abide event.
