Minnesota Supreme Court Rules Great Northern May Issue Stock
The Minnesota Supreme Court upholds the Great Northern railway’s right to issue $60 million in stock without prior review by the railway and warehouse commission. The decision reverses a Ramsey County injunction, holding that while legislature may regulate stock increases, it cannot delegate its authority to the commission. The ruling confirms stock installment plans totaling $24.8 million due by April 9.
