Bank guaranty law case delays reply in Topeka
In Topeka on August 24, Dolley tied a plea through lawyers to gain more time to respond to Attorney General Jackson's suit. The case tests the bank guaranty law and involves Bank Commissioner Dolley and State Treasurer Tulley in a friendly action aimed at judicial review in state courts. Tulley’s separate stance complicates the matter as he defends his own charges and money handling as guaranty fund custodian. The dispute centers on Dolley’s eligibility rulings and Tulley’s alleged violations, with unclear prospects for resolution.
