Reeves v. Hastings
Supreme Court of Minnesota
Appeal by Thomas H. Reeves, insolvent, from an order of the district court for Hennepin county, Russell, J., allowing Albert W. Hastings, as receiver, the sum of $750 in addition to the sum of $564.58, as commissions upon the moneys collected by him as receiver.
1Opinion of the Court
START, C. J.2
The appellant was a member of the firm of E. K. Smith & Co., of whose property Albert W. Hastings was appointed receiver, under the insolvency law of 1881, upon the petition of creditors. The appellant appeared at the hearing in the district court, on the settlement of the receiver’s accounts, and objected to the allowance of the sum of $750, claimed by him as extra compensation for his services as receiver in excess of the fees for such services limited by law in ordinary cases; and the appellant appeals from the order of the court allowing such extra compensation.
