Finucane v. Interior Constr. Corp

In Finucane v. Interior Constr. Corp., 264 AD2d 618 (1st Dep't 1999) the First Department held that the laws of the state selected by the parties in their contract (Oklahoma) bore a reasonable relationship to the contract because one party's "principal place of business [was] located in Oklahoma." Finucane, 264 AD2d at 620. The court stated further that "even if New York were deemed to have a greater interest in the litigation, the fact that Wiltel's principal place of business is located in Oklahoma is a sufficient basis to support enforcement of the parties' contractual choice of law." Finucane, 264 AD2d at 620.
