Banking Association v. Insurance Association

102 U.S. 121, 12 Otto 121, 26 L. Ed. 45, 1880 U.S. LEXIS 2008

Supreme Court of the United States·Decided March 2, 1880·Published·Cited by 8 cases

Opinion

Mr. Chiee Justice Waite

delivered the opinion of the court.

■ From this record it appears affirmatively that the only dispute between the parties is as to the right of the insurance association to'withhold a transfer of stock until an indebtedness of a stockholder- to it for $2,074.-36 is paid. Such being the case, we have no jurisdiction of this .appeal. In Gray v. Blanchard (97 U. S. 564) we. held that'a writ of error must be dismissed when it’ appears from the record, taken as a whole, that .the amount actually in controversy between the’parties was not sufficient to give-us-jurisdiction.

Appeal dismissed.
