Mortgage dispute over attestation amid orchard bankruptcy
In a Port Perry bankruptcy, unsecured creditors challenge a $30,000 mortgage for defective attestation with only one witness, claiming correction prior to adjudication. Bank counters that two witnesses sealed legality from the start. A $1,000 Gridley-Maxon chattel mortgage on apples and spraying gear is tied to the crop and orchard assets, including 249 acres and 20,000 trees. The case notes a $40,000 cold storage facility and an apple crop nearing 16,000 barrels. The Orchard Company formed in 1916 with $45,000 capital. Wayne L. Elkins represents unsecured creditors opposing Huntington bank’s priority claim.
