Bankers' Attorney Sets Defense in Oregon Case
Salem April 21 The defense in the J Thoburn Ross trial hinges on whether State Treasurer George A Steel's deposit with Title Guarantee Trust was a general checkable deposit or a loan to the bank. Wallace McCamant argues Steel acted as a debtor to the bank, not a bailor, citing Oregon Supreme Court rulings on authority to place funds in a bank. The jury heard little evidence as McCamant's legal brief dominated the morning and afternoon sessions with Steel absent at times.
