Banks Not Bound By Harriman Rescue Agreement
Supreme Court Justice Shientag dismissed a $2.84 million suit against nine member banks of the Clearing House Association over guarantees for Harriman National Bank and Trust’s depositors. The ruling held the clearing house committee lacked power to bind banks to the guarantee, that an executive officer cannot bind a bank without board approval, and that some banks’ executives had no notice of the committee’s assumed authority. Eleven other banks had already settled for $3.59 million.
