In re Clark

5 F. Cas. 851, 6 Nat. Bank. Reg. 202, 1871 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 150

Opinion

BLATCHFORD, District Judge.

I am of opinion that the facts set forth in the certificate of the register show a case within the provision of the fourth section of the act, that in all matters where an issue of fact or of law is raised and contested by any party to the proceedings before a register, it shall be his duty to cause the question or issue to be stated by the opposing parties in writing, and he shall adjourn the same into court for decision by the judge. In the present case the opposing parties have stated in writing the question or issue. I think on the evidence that all of the claim of Mr. James is allowable, except the item of ten dollars and fifty-six cents.
