Carter v. Beck, 366 A.2d 520 (Me. 1976). · cites it 3× “The presiding Justice instructed the jury that 32 M.R.S.A. § 4004 was inapplicable to the case because the contract of the parties was not a contract to sell real estate but was a promotional contract and, hence, their contract could be enforceable even if not in writing.”
J.F. Singleton Co. v. Rush, 463 A.2d 282 (Me. 1983). · cites it 2× “The Defendant first argues that by using the expired listing form in drafting their new agreement, the parties did not execute a new contract as required under 32 M.R.S.A. § 4004. This argument is without merit.”
Petrie v. Johnson, 226 A.2d 527 (Me. 1967). “In issue is the application of 32 M.R.S.A. § 4004 to an oral contract between the parties for the sale of defendant’s real estate.”
