Bond ruling cited in Johnson City case governs local debt
The Johnson City bond case confirms Judge Smith that $75,000 in Three C's Railroad bonds were void for issuing to a foreign corporation beyond legal limits. The decision notes constitutional chapter 3 of 1887, bond limits at one tenth of taxable property, and foreign status of the railway firm. The ruling is expected to be affirmed, affecting creditors and local finance.
