United States v Ohio over 15 Million Bond Contract
The United States Circuit Court of Appeals reviewed Roberts & Co. of New York v City of Cincinnati. The case centered on a $15,000,000 refunding contract with the Sinking Fund Trustees, tied to Southern Railroad bonds. Earlier courts held the contract invalid. Roberts & Co. sought enforcement. Arguments debated whether federal courts must follow state court judgments and if a federal question existed. The dispute drew broad interest for its substantial sum and complex jurisdictional questions.
