HILL, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. MELVIN LOVE CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, Defendant-Appellant.
No. 5703.
OPINION
By PETREE, PJ.
Application for rehearing was filed herein on January 30, 1958. This case was decided on its merits on December 18, 1957, on questions of law from the judgment of the Common Pleas Court of Franklin County.
*596Inasmuch as the Common Pleas Court stated sufficient reasons, in our opinion, upon which to base its judgment, the application for rehearing will be overruled. The judgment allowed a five per cent commission based upon a sale price of $19,500.00, which sale was made within ten days after the contract giving plaintiff, Mildred J. Hill, the exclusive right, during a period of ninety days from March 8, 1954, to sell the property in question. The court found that said property was sold on March 18, 1954. No question arises in this case as to a sale within three months after the expiration of the date of the contract.
We feel that the trial court was justified in its judgment, which followed the holding of the Supreme Court of Ohio in Bell v. Dimmerling, 149 Oh St 165.
Motion for rehearing will be denied.
BRYANT and MILLER, JJ, concur.
