Richards v. Richards

Grosman, A. M.

This matter is before the court on the application of the complainant to forfeit a ne exeat bond in the sum of thirty-five hundred dollars ($3,500), given by the defendant, Charles R. Richards, deceased, as principal, and John J. Flaherty, Jr., as surety; as well as on the cross-application of the surety to vacate said bond and exonerate him thereon because of the death of said Charles R. Richards. The complainant concedes the death of said principal, but urges a forfeiture of the bond because his death was self inflicted, the principal having committed suicide.
