Basis Of Bank Suit In Baldwinsville Case
A banking practice question opens a Supreme Court trial as Gould Paper Company sues First National Bank & Trust Company of Baldwinsville over a July 28 1938 check for 1125 57 drawn on the Baldwinsville bank. Gould claims the check was credited earlier that day before a Garrett Company official stopped payment and the bank later canceled the credit restoring funds to Garrett. Garrett later went bankrupt. The issue is whether the bank had authority to cancel Goulds credit after entry.
