PER CURIAM
Plaintiff Mohammad Shaikh appeals from summary judgment
dismissal of his complaint alleging breach of contract and
seeking specific performance arising out of his winning bids at
public auction on two lots owned by defendant, Jersey City. We
affirm.
Although the City's governing body accepted plaintiff's
$1500 bid on a property on Liberty Avenue1 and transferred title
to him, it rejected his $10,000 bid on a property on Eastview
Court. It is undisputed that at the time of the bid, April l8,
2007, plaintiff did not meet the conditions of the City's
Resolution 07-209, adopted March l4, 2007, which authorized the
sale of City owned property not needed for public use, as he was
delinquent in taxes and had code violations on property he owned
