LaSALLE HOTEL LESSEE, INC., Appellant, v. MARRIOTT HOTEL SERVICES, INC., Respondent.

Plaintiff failed to plead sufficiently ( see Guggenheimer v. Ginzburg, 43 NY2d 268, 275) factual allegations of breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duty. The plain, unambiguous language of the management agreement, when read as a whole ( see Brooke Group v. JCH Syndicate 488, 87 NY2d 530), delegates to defendant the sole right to manage the hotel, including the right to establish employee wages and benefits, with no reservation for plaintiff to approve or disapprove that decision. The cause of action for breach of fiduciary duty, based on the same allegations as for breach of contract, was also properly dismissed ( see Layden v. Boccio, 253 AD2d 540). And since no breach occurred, there can be no claim for declaratory judgment.

We have considered plaintiff's remaining arguments and find them to be without merit.
