Bankruptcy Petition Targets Catholic University Trustee Waggaman
Three Washington banks file to have Thomas E. Waggaman adjudged bankrupt over a deed of trust said to favor the Catholic University of America. The case cites land transfers and notes totaling about 876000 as securing University debts, with questions raised about the deed’s validity and the university’s gain from the arrangement. District lawyers assess whether the trust stands as proper security or an improper preference.
