ALLEGED ORAL MODIFICATION OF A CONTRACT WHICH REQUIRED WRITTEN NOTICE UNENFORCEABLE.

The Third Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined the alleged oral modification of a contract which required written notice was not enforceable:

… [I]f an oral modification has not “been acted upon to completion” in a manner that “demonstrate[s], objectively, the nature and extent of the modification” … , it will be enforceable only upon a showing “of either partial performance . . ., which must be unequivocally referable to the oral modification, or equitable estoppel, based upon conduct which is not otherwise compatible with the agreement as written” … . * * *

The performance of the parties under [the] purported [oral] arrangement, in other words, was identical to that required under a renewed sales agreement. It cannot, as a result, be said that “there was [any] performance on [plaintiff’s] part that was unequivocally referable to the existence of an oral contract” … . Likewise, inasmuch as the behavior of the parties was “compatible with the agreement as written,” and given the absence of written notice of nonrenewal, there is no basis for estopping defendant from relying upon the agreement as written … . J. Triple S., Inc. v Aero Star Petroleum, Inc., 2016 NY Slip Op 05414, 3rd Dept 7-7-16
