THIS CAUSE came on for Non-Jury Trial on November 1, 1973,
upon the complaint of the Plaintiff, GEORGE A. SALEEBY, JR., and
the answer of the Defendant, FRANK J. HAAS. The Plaintiff, a duly
licensed real estate broker, alleges an agreement between himself.
and the Defendant, whereby he agreed to procure from the executors
of the estate of Adrain M. Sample, deceased, a contract to sell to
the Defendant certain real estate owned by the estate. The
Plaintiff further alleges that the Defendant agreed, upon delivery
by said owners to Defendant of a good and sufficient deed of con-
veyance of said real estate, ta pay to Plaintiff as commission for
his services the sum of $22,7t3, or three percent of the total
purchase price of $~57,111.00; said commission to be paid in install-
ments as the 1971-1972 citrus crop was harvested and sold. After
alleging compliance with his part of the contract, the Plaintiff
acknowledged payments from the Defendant totaling $18,000. In this
suit, Plaintiff is claiming damages for the alleged unpaid balance
of $4, 713. 00.

' was two and one-half percent or $18,000, that said sum has been paid,
i
and denies any further indebtedness to the Plaintiff. The court .
