Legal notes on Weeks Morison and Folsom mortgage case
The Court of Appeals reverses an Appellate Division ruling, holding that Francis H. Weeks acting as attorney for Daniel Morison had apparent authority to receive mortgage principal, given Weeks possession of the security and Morison’s lack of notice of title change. The case centers on Weeks embezzling estate funds and whether Folsom could rely on Weeks as Morison’s agent. The note also covers a second matter on Barbara Schwind and a lunatic daughter, where a lower court found no gift or trust in funds deposited at Williamsburg Savings Bank. The court affirmed, ruling no divestiture of possession or control occurred.
