Stock Exchange Loses Case Over Death Benefit Proceeds
New York March 22 Judge Leventritt renders a decision adverse to the New York Stock Exchange in the Bernheim vs Keppler case. The court holds that after Abraham Bernheim's death the exchange sold his seat's proceeds to pay a debt to J Levy & Co, a debt contracted before Bernheim joined the exchange. The ruling, the first of its kind, hinges on whether seats are property of the exchange and if proceeds can satisfy nonmember contracts.
