Duke of Manchester and Ker-Seymer Loan Dispute at Trials
The case centers on a 250 pound loan the Duke of Manchester allegedly cannot repay. Mr Ker-Seymer had handed a 250 pound check to the duke after the latter asked for funds while promising repayment soon. The duke later claimed no money to pay back and offered a smaller sum or promises to borrow. The dispute unfolds with written communications and a writ filed after delays. The duke’s counsel notes an earlier 500 pound check related to ship negotiations and a repayment in part.
