Labette County Wins Suit Over State Bank Guaranty Fund

Labette County commissioners won a suit against the state bank commissioner for eighteen thousand two hundred thirty dollars from public funds on deposit in Oswego State Bank when it failed two years ago. The supreme court held the bank commissioner responsible for notifying the public that deposits were no longer protected, a ruling that could cost the guaranty fund over three hundred thousand dollars. County Attorney Ratner sought to pin responsibility on predecessor Carl J. Peterson, arguing the bank should have been posted with conspicuous notice that guaranty protection had ended rather than only advising removal of the guaranty sign. The case hinged on the law’s aim to protect depositors, not the bank.
