Banks In Court Over Corwith Bank Receiver Claims
In a Corwith bank receivership case Judge Clark weighs 870000 in bank claims from northern Iowa banks. Sullivan McMahon defend local banks seeking 4000 and Bank of St Benedict 13000, arguing funds held by the cashier were held in trust not part of regular assets due to forged notes. Receiver Oelke lists assets of 75000 with 188000 in deposits, facing possible full subtraction if St Benedict and others gain preferred status. Proceedings resume September 2 for final argument.
