Appellate Court of Illinois

Decided June 24, 1895PublishedCited by 4 opinions

Proceedings Under the Act Relating to Assignments for the Benefit of Creditors.—Appeal from the County Court of Cook County; the Hon. Orrin N. Carter, Judge, presiding. Heard in this court at the March term, 1895.

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Gaby

delivebed the opinion of the Couet.

The motion of the appellee to dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction is denied for reasons stated in Union Nat. Bk. v. Browne-Chapin Lumber Co., 59 Ill. App. 423.

The case is that the appellee petitioned the court to order the appellant, who is assignee in insolvency of J. M. Omo, to pay rent. It appears the appellant has no sufficient funds of the estate of the insolvent with which to pay, and as the order made that he should pay is one that the appellee probably expects to enforce by attachment, the appellant has good reason to try and get it reversed.
