Grievital Wins Again in Oriental Bank Case
The Appellate Division affirms dismissal of temporary receivers for the Oriental Bank, backing solvency findings and enabling liquidation with Metropolitan Trust. Hugh Kelly and Brayton Ives express relief and confidence the deal will proceed once receivers are removed, while the court criticizes Attorney General Jackson for seeking receivers without notice. The decision notes strong bank surplus and that creditors stand to be paid in full, keeping the Metropolitan plan viable.
