Opinion
Nos. 221, 222, 223.
Motions to dismiss or affirm and applications for certiorari submitted December 7, 1908. Decided December 14, 1908.
Appeals from the Circuit Court of Appeals affirming orders and decrees of the bankruptcy court dismissed for want of jurisdiction without opinion on authority of Chapman v. Bowen, 207 U.S. 89.
Page 562 [The headnote in Chapman v. Bowen, 207 U.S. 89, is as follows: Page 563 "Clause 3 of general order in bankruptcy XXXVI applies to appealable cases and must be complied with.
"This appeal cannot be maintained because it does not come within either paragraph 1 or paragraph 2 of § 25 b of the bankruptcy act.
"Where the decision below proceeds on principles of general law broad enough to sustain it without reference to provisions of the bankruptcy act, the question involved is not one which would justify a writ of error from the highest court of a State to this court."]
Mr. E.E. Clevenger and Mr. Cook Danford, for appellants.
Mr. A.H. Mitchell for appellees.
Appeals dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Applications for certiorari denied. Chapman, Trustee, c., v. Bowen, 207 U.S. 89.
