Lewis v. Matthews
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
Appeal by the defendants, Thomas A. Matthews and others, from a judgment of the Supreme Court in favor of the plaintiff, entered in the office of the clerk of the county of Hew York on the 10th day of June, 1913, upon the decision of the court after a trial at the Hew York Special Term.
1Opinion of the Court
Ingraham, P. J. :
The facts are stated in the opinion of my brother Dowling, and I agree with him that the judgment is correct as to the sums of money which the individual defendants paid themselves from the treasury of the defendant corporation for what was called the 1911 salaries. The question as to the salaries received by the individual defendants for the year 1912, however, presents a different question, and I think that the judgment so far as it allows a recovery against the individual defendants for the salaries received by them for the year 1912 cannot be sustained.
