Permission to Sue the Vandalia Corporation in State Courts
Federal Judge Woods denied leave to sue the Vandalia receiver in state courts or to file an intervening petition in favor of the state. The case concerns jurisdiction over a railroad with funds to the school, and the state may pursue a regular action in state court to determine validity and amount of its claim, then file in federal court. The ruling preserves state court leverage while maintaining federal control over the overall process.
