Opinion
Docket No. 3,482.
Decided June 10, 1968.
Appeal from Kalamazoo, Sweet (Lucien F.), J. Submitted Division 3 April 3, 1968, at Grand Rapids. (Docket No. 3,482.) Decided June 10, 1968.
Complaint by Robert E. Shannon against the Gull Lake Association for specific performance of contract to sell land. Judgment for defendant. Plaintiff appeals. Affirmed.
Golden Golden, for plaintiff.
Howard Howard ( Frederick A. Lake, of counsel), for defendant.
Plaintiff appeals a judgment of no cause of action for specific performance of an agreement to sell real estate. Two contracts are involved, the first dated July 21, 1961, and the second February 12, 1963. The trial court found that the second contract superseded the first contract, and that plaintiff was not entitled to specific performance of the second contract because of his failure to meet his contractual obligations thereunder. A review of the record fails to convince us we would have reached a different result had we sat as the trial court.
Specific performance is not a remedy of right but rests in the sound discretion of the court. Rose v. Gilbert (1948), 320 Mich. 455. This record demonstrates no abuse of discretion.
Affirmed, with costs to defendant.
BURNS, P.J., and QUINN and ZIEM, JJ., concurred.
