Shepardson's Appeal from Probate
Supreme Court of Connecticut
Motion in error from -a judgment of the Superior Court in Hartford County, (Pardee, J".,) affirming on appeal a decree of a probate court, appointing a trustee in insolvency upon the estate of the appellant, on insolvent proceedings against him by his creditors under the insolvent law of the state. The case is sufficiently stated in the opinion.
1Opinion of the CourtCarpenter, J.
Proceedings were instituted against the appellant under the insolvent laws of this state, and thereupon a trustee was appointed by the court of probate. From that decree an appeal was taken, and the Superior Court affirmed the decree. The appellant now seeks to reverse that .judgment by motion in error.
The objection to the validity of that decree is based upon the claim that the statute authorizing it had been superseded the operation of the bankrupt act of the United States, then and now in force. That act applies only to cases where the debtor is owiug debts provable under the act “…
