Supreme Court halts Bear Gulch receiver actions in Mines case
Helena October 13. By writ of prohibition the Montana supreme court restrains Alexander Livingston from interfering with Bear Gulch Mining trustees and directors until next Monday as it reviews the case on appeal. The injunction and receivership action stems from John Murdock's suit filed July 6, 1902, seeking restraining orders and a receiver. The relators say the receiver acts without jurisdiction and would damage them if allowed to proceed during the appeal.
