Court Returns Deposit After Auction Sale Void
Judge Wright ruled in the Clara Dohnen estate matter that the $500 deposit for the 2015 and 2017 Street Northwest auction would be returned and the sale cancelled. Mrs Mynsbridge proved the title was clouded while the trustee argued valid title by adverse possession.
