Bankrupts Seek Transfer Return of Forbes Land in NSW

In an ex parte bankruptcy case in Sydney, Patrick and James Ryan and James Ryan’s estate pursue a declaration that a December 1920 transfer of Forbes land to Katherine Ryan is void or, failing that, an order for transfer to the official assignee.
