Judge orders Jerry Seinfeld to pay broker's commission
NEW YORK — Jerry Seinfeld's high-priced Manhattan home is going to cost him more than he thought, about $100,000 more.
house and made a deal to buy it without Cohen after they were unable to reach her and she failed to return their calls.
A Manhattan judge has ruled the 52-year-old comedian owes about that much as a commission to the broker who helped him find a town house on the Upper West Side that he and wife Jessica bought for $3.95 million in February 2005.
Seinfeld had argued that the broker, Tamara Cohen, didn't deserve the commission because she failed to show the West 82nd Street brownstone on the Jewish Sabbath, the day the Seinfelds wanted to see it.
The Seinfelds looked at the
Cohen said she had told the Seinfield she observed the Jewish Sabbath and couldn't work between Friday evening and sun-down Saturday. But the Seinfields told the court they didn't know why Cohen didn't return their calls
State Supreme Court Justice Rolando Accosta said "the evidence clearly indicates she served as the Seinfelds' real estate broker" and that she had shown them a number of residences before finding the town house.
The judge also noted that Cohen had agreed with Maximillan Sanchez, the broker who listed the house for its owners, to split evenly a 5 percent or 6 percent fee, her half paid by the Seinfelds and
"The only real issue here, as far as the court is concerned," Accosta said in his decision earlier this month, "is whether the broker's fee was 5 or 6 percent."
his half paid by the owners of the house.
The judge ordered a trial to determine how much Cohen should get. At 5 percent, the total fee would be $197,500 and Seinfeld would owe Cohen $98,750; at 6 percent, the fee would be $237,000 and Cohen's cut would be $118,500.
Seinfeld's lawyer, Richard Menaker, wasn't immediately available, his office said.
Cohen's lawyer, Steven Landy, said he was "gratified and happy with the decision, and we believe it was the correct one."
TELEVISION "American Idol" draws nearly 40 million viewers
Associated Press
PASADENA, Calif. — The parade of awful amateurs on "American Idol" attracted viewers in staggering numbers this week as the series continues to grow in popularity.
An estimated 36.9 million people watched the two-hour special on Fox Wednesday night, only slightly down from the 37.3 million who tuned in for Tuesday's two-hour season premiere, according to Nielsen Media Research.
To put the numbers into per
They were the two biggest nights of prime-time entertainment on Fox since the show first aired nearly two decades ago.
The audience for what host Ryan Seacrest dubbed the "weirdest turnout in history" on Wednesday was 17 percent bigger than the corresponding night a year ago. Nielsen said.
spective, the most popular show on TV so far this season, ABC's "Desperate Housewives," averages 20.7 million viewers a week — or a little more than half of what "Idol" delivered upon its return.
Wednesday's edition featured hopefuls from Seattle, one of seven cities where auditions were held last summer. And it provided plenty of fodder for cantankerous judge Simon Cowell.
"What the bloody hell was that?" judge Simon Cowell said after enduring a unique version of "Unchained Melody" adding, "It was almost non-human."
To another woman who insisted a drink of water would smooth her delivery, Cowell replied: "You could lie in a bath with your mouth open and you couldn't sing."
The ratings performance of "American Idol" defies traditional television rules, where series in their sixth season would normally see a slip in popularity. As gleeful as that made the people at Fox, it
depressed their network rivals.
"There always that hope that the next iteration of "American idol; will show some weakness," said Nancy Tellem, president of the CBS Paramount Network "and clearly it hasn't."
Fox's rivals jokingly — it appears — refer to "American idol" as the death star. NBC entertainment president Kevin Reilly said he was ready to declare the television season over on Tuesday, before Fox storms past everyone in the ratings.
Reilly said a network has to "rope-a-dope a little bit" to get through the "American Idol" onslaught. CBS has tended to have the most success, where a show like "NCIS" appeals to a different audience.
"Our shows hang in there OK," said CBS scheduling chief Kelly Kahl. "The other guys kind of get vaporized."
