No. 116 SSM 8
[*1]Air Stream Corp., Appellant,
v3300 Lawson Corp., Respondent.

Submitted by Floyd G. Grossman, for appellant.
Submitted by Linda S. Agnew, for respondent.


On review of submissions pursuant to section 500.11 of the Rules of the Court of Appeals (22 NYCRR 500.11), order reversed, with costs, and case remitted to the Appellate Division, Second Department, for further proceedings in accordance with the principles of law expressed in Estate of Becker v Murtagh (___ NY3d ___ [2012] [decided today]). Because the legal standards Supreme Court employed were consonant with our decision in Becker, we remit to the Appellate Division rather than Supreme Court. Thus, the Appellate Division, in reviewing Supreme Court's judgment, should now apply the facts of this case to the law as expressed in Becker.
Chief Judge Lippman and Judges Ciparick, Graffeo, Read, Smith, Pigott and Jones concur.
