Twenty Dollars for the Assistant Receiver in Montana Case
The Boston and Montana Mining Company files in district court an answer to Thomas R. Hinds report as former receiver. It caps his compensation at 50 dollars and the assistant at 20 dollars, faults attorney fees, and claims costs should be charged to plaintiffs James Forrester and John MacGinness. It disputes necessity of the receivership, attack on the assistant’s authority, and argues the receiver served five days with minimal value. The suit centers on property transfers between Montana and New York corporations and seeks discharge of the receiver with costs borne by plaintiffs. The filing is signed by attorneys for the Boston & Montana company.
