Citation | 96 F. 942 |
Parties | In re TUDOR. |
Court | U.S. Court of Appeals — Tenth Circuit |
Bicksler McLean & Bennett, for creditors.
John H Gabriel, for bankrupt.
The first part of the order of the referee is that the bankrupt pay over to the trustee appointed herein the sum of $2,106.44. We do not understand there is any question made as to the testimony on which this order was made. The referee appears to have determined, upon the examination of the bankrupt, that there was this amount of money and property in his possession, which the bankrupt should turn over to the trustee. It is not plain that the referee was mistaken in his judgment, or that the testimony was not sufficient to support the order.
As for the remainder of the order, it was that the bankrupt render the trustee a full and true statement of the profits received by him on the sale of the stock and fixtures of the Denver Crockery & Housefurnishing Company, and deliver to said trustee all books of account in his possession relating thereto. In that part of the order he is not required to pay anything to the trustee. He was to make a statement of profits received from this concern and turn over the books of the concern. Whether the referee would, upon any such statement being made, or upon examination of the books of the Denver Crockery concern, make a further order directing him to make any payment to the trustee, is not disclosed; but the presumption being in favor of the referee's jurisdiction, we must assume, for anything that has been said here to-day, that he had jurisdiction to make such an order. If it be true, as alleged by counsel, that the earnings of the bankrupt, after the filing of the petition and before adjudication, are not subject to the payment of creditors' demands, we do not know that upon ascertaining any such matter the referee would have ordered them paid. He appears to have been conducting an investigation. He was engaged in inquiring about the condition of this estate, and he was authorized to inquire. The bankruptcy law provides that, upon adjudication, a bankrupt shall submit himself to an examination of the creditors. Of what avail will an examination be, if it can be arrested at any point in the progress of the examination upon the ground that the matter may be found to be of such a character that the bankrupt cannot be required to surrender to his creditors?
