| Plaintiff seeks damages for the breach of an oral agreement to sell 90,000 bushels of corn. The District Court sustained a motion for summary judgment on the ground that the plaintiff's action was barred by the statute of frauds. Plaintiff premises this appeal on its theory that fact issues are present which are not determinable at a hearing on a motion for summary judgment. We affirm. Plaintiff-appellant, Farmland Service Coop, Inc., hereinafter referred to as Coop, alleges that Ross Klein, acting on behalf of the defendants collectively, agreed to sell it 90,000 bushels of corn. The corn was to be No. 2 yellow corn and the sale price was $1.39 per bushel, with delivery during June, July, and August. Coop further alleges defendants knew it would rely on defendants' agreement and immediately enter into resale agreements with others. |
