Attorney General seeks appeal in Oriental Bank case ruling
New York AG Jackson asks Appellate Division for leave to appeal to the Court of Appeals from the order upholding a prior ruling removing receivers appointed for Oriental Bank. He seeks to overturn the end of the receivership arguing the bank cannot wind up its existence by itself. Meanwhile assets and books were sought to be retained by temporary receivers but the motion was denied.
