Docket entry

992904 Beck v. Smith 11/03/2000 The trial court erred concluding that buyers of property could not prevail on a breach of contract claim because the terms of the contract for sale were merged into the deed, but correctly ruled that they could not recover for fraud because a title examination would have disclosed the facts. Judgment on the contract claim is reversed, the jury verdict awarding the plaintiffs compensatory and consequential damages for the contract claim is reinstated, and dismissal of the fraud claim is affirmed. (Opinion revised 11/8/00)
