JUDICIAL DECISIONS
EDITOR'S NOTES. --In light of the similarity of the statutory provisions, decisions under Ga. L. 1925, p. 325, and under former Code 1933, Ch. 84-14, as it read prior to revision by Ga. L. 1973, p. 100, are included in the annotations for this Code section.
STATE MAY IMPOSE LICENSE FEE UPON OCCUPATION WITHOUT ABRIDGING CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS and privileges of others carrying on business in the state, or depriving others of equal protection of laws, or taking others' property without due process of law. Camp v. State, 171 Ga. 25, 154 S.E. 436 (1930) (decided under Ga. L. 1925, p. 325).
O.C.G.A. CH. 40, T. 43 IS MERELY REGULATORY IN NATURE and does not have the effect of changing the substantive law applicable in a civil action to recover for a real estate agent's alleged misconduct. Johnson Realty, Inc. v. Hand, 189 Ga. App. 706, 377 S.E.2d 176 (1988).
CHAPTER SETS FORTH THE SCOPE AND LIMIT OF LEGISLATION as to authority of commission to adopt rules and regulations. O'Neal v. Georgia Real Estate Comm'n, 129 Ga. App. 211, 199 S.E.2d 362 (1973) (decided under former Code 1933, Ch. 84-14; see O.C.G.A. Ch. 40, T. 43).
MINIMUM PURCHASE PRICE UPHELD. --Award of realty firm's minimum purchase price to sellers was proper; the contract unambiguously provided for a $70,000 minimum purchase price to be paid even if the sellers were no longer entitled to commission overrides because the sellers' relationship with the firm was terminated prior to the end of a three-year period. Mt. Aire Realty, Inc. v. Birdie White Enters., 265 Ga. App. 366, 593 S.E.2d 900 (2004).
CAUSE OF ACTION MAY BE BASED IN TORT by showing conspiracy to deprive real estate broker of commissions due under contract. Mathews v. Greiner, 130 Ga. App. 817, 204 S.E.2d 749 (1974) (decided under former Code 1933, Ch. 84-14).
CONDITIONS FOR RECOVERY OF COMMISSION FOR REAL ESTATE SALE. --Petition which seeks to recover commissions for sale of real estate only is fatally defective unless the petition alleges that the plaintiff has complied with the provisions of the law as it pertains to real estate salesmen or brokers. When a petition is grounded upon single contract for sale of real estate and personalty it is good as against a general demurrer (now motion to dismiss). The amount of recovery is a question of fact. Moreland v. Kilgore, 83 Ga. App. 606, 64 S.E.2d 295 (1951) (decided under former Code 1933, Ch. 84-14).
COMPENSATION IN ASSUMPSIT ON QUANTUM MERUIT BASIS IS AVAILABLE TO REALTORS. --Court of Appeals erred in holding that compensation claimed in assumpsit on quantum meruit basis was not within contemplation of law pertaining to real estate brokers. Stokes & Co. v. McCoy, 212 Ga. 78, 90 S.E.2d 404 (1955) (decided under former Code 1933, Ch. 84-14).
CITED in Dwyer v. Impeciato, 134 Ga. App. 147, 213 S.E.2d 529 (1975); Krizan v. Newman & Co., 246 Ga. 214, 271 S.E.2d 135 (1980).
