Gilman v. United States

First indicating that no question of the jurisdiction of the District Court under the Tucker Act (24 Stat. 505) has been raised or decided, we affirm the judgment of that court on the opinion of the learned trial judge (290 Fed. 614), later fortified by the decision of the Circuit Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit in Helmholz v. Horst, 294 Fed. 417, affirming Horst v. United States (D. C.) 283 Fed. 600.
