Law Offices of Jerry K. Staub and Jerry K. Staub, for Plaintiff and Appellant.
John T. Thornton, Ellis D. Reiter, Jr., Wallace L. Rosvall, and Robert W. Peyton, for Defendants and Respondents.
SUMMARY
Appellant Stevenson Real Estate Services (Stevenson) appeals from a judgment entered after the trial court granted respondents' motion for judgment on the pleadings without leave to amend. We conclude the first amended complaint failed to state a claim, and therefore the trial court properly granted the motion for judgment on the pleadings. However, appellant should be granted leave to amend his complaint to attempt to plead a claim based upon respondents' alleged violation of the rules of an association of realtors.
BACKGROUND AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY
The operative pleading, Stevenson's first amended complaint, alleged Stevenson and non-party David Maron are licensed real estate brokers. Maron is a principal in Stevenson. It further alleged that sometime around 2001, Vision Entertainment (Vision) asked Stevenson and Maron to represent it in finding suitable property to lease in order to consolidate its three offices in a single location.
