1Opinion of the Court
The Chancellor.
Where a bill is filed by one who desscribes himself as a creditor, under Section 3883 of the Revised Code of 1915, against an alleged insolvent corporation of this State, and the answer denies that the complainant is in fact a creditor, may the Chancellor proceed to hear and determine the question of the complainant’s status as a creditor in accordance with usual equity procedure, the alleged creditor never having established his claim by a judgment at law, and the defendant demanding a right to a trial by jury?
