Military Service Savings Receiver Extended by Maryland Court
In Rockville Maryland the Montgomery County Circuit Court extended the receivership of Military Service Savings and Loan Association. Judges Thomas M Anderson and Ralph G Shure signed the order allowing the receivership to continue in full force pending further action. The association consented to the order. The court also left open the earlier petition by state officials to liquidate the firm and forfeit its charter. The extension comes as hearings focus on charges of insolvency and improper loans connected to president Murray Michael. Most depositors amounting to about 3.4 million are service members stationed outside Maryland.
