Trust Co. of Chicago v. Fargeson

This is an appeal from an order and judgment entered by the municipal court of Chicago in favor of garnishee defendant, who is now the appellee. Plaintiff appellant was the lessor of premises occupied by the primary defendant, one Fargeson, who operated a hardware store. On February 16, 1948, Fargeson sold his entire stock to the garnishee defendant. It is the contention of plaintiff that this sale was in violation of the Bulk Sales Act, and that it may resort to the proceeds in the hands of garnishee defendant for all rents to become due under the lease after the date of sale.
