Conner v. First National Bank
Washington Supreme Court
Appeal from a judgment of the superior court for Skagit county, Brawley, J., entered March 23, 1920, in favor of the defendant, in an action to recover a fraudulent preference by an insolvent, after a trial to the court.
1Opinion of the CourtParker, J.
The plaintiff, as trustee in bankruptcy of the Nooksack Lumber- Company, seeks recovery from the defendant hank, proceeding upon the theory that it wrongfully obtained preference payments as a creditor of the lumber company while that company was insolvent. A trial upon the merits by the court sitting without a jury resulted in judgment denying to the plaintiff any recovery. He has appealed therefrom to this court.
