Philip Lippe, Respondent, v. John L. Fink, Appellant.
    
    
      
      Affd., 257 N. Y. 577.
    
   Judgment reversed upon the law, with costs, and judgment directed for the defendant dismissing the complaint, with costs. In our opinion the contract in question involved the sale of a lease having over seven years to run which was an interest in real property, and no sufficient memorandum of the agreement of sale was made in writing pursuant to section 259 of the Real Property Law. Young, Kapper, Carswell, Scudder and Davis, JJ., concur.
