Donald B. WILKINS v. George HEEBNER and B & K Industries, Inc., Appellants.

Supreme Court of Pennsylvania.

Filed July 13, 1984.

Reargument Denied September 18, 1984.

Petition for Allowance of Appeal Denied February 25, 1985.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

James F. Mangan, Philadelphia, for appellants.

Ronald N. Rutenberg, Philadelphia, for appellee.

Before BROSKY, WIEAND and McEWEN, JJ.


WIEAND, Judge:

May a person who negotiates a lease for another but who lacks a real estate broker's license maintain an action to recover a ten percent interest in a corporation allegedly promised to him as compensation for successful negotiation of the lease? We hold that such an action is barred by the provisions of the Real Estate Brokers License Act.1 An equity decree allowing recovery, therefore, must be reversed.
