CHAKRABARTI v. MARCO S. MARINELLO ASSOCIATES, INC.

377 Mass. 419 (1979)

386 N.E.2d 1248

ANIL K. CHAKRABARTI & another vs. MARCO S. MARINELLO ASSOCIATES, INC.

Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts, Hampden.

March 6, 1979.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Cornelius J. Moriarty, II, for the defendant.

Richard F. Connon for the plaintiffs.

Present: HENNESSEY, C.J., KAPLAN, WILKINS, LIACOS, & ABRAMS, JJ.

HENNESSEY, C.J.

The single issue we decide in this case is whether the Housing Court of the County of Hampden has subject matter jurisdiction over a civil action brought under G.L.c. 93A alleging unfair and deceptive practices committed in the sale of a house. Based on our reading of the legislative history of St. 1973, c. 591, the act creating the Housing Court of the County of Hampden, we hold that this type of dispute is not within that court's jurisdiction.
