Excerpt: ...to a claim, (section 2 r8), ought to prevent the hearing of disputed claims from dragging on for a great length of time, and also ought to deter rival creditors from making groundless objec § 55. Subsequent Meetings---Power of the Creditors Over the Trustee. tions. (Compare in re Bartusch, 9 B. R. 478.) Further, while any determination as to the validity of a claim should be made only after due consideration of all the evidence which may be produced, yet it is to be borne in mind that any error resulting from a hasty decision may be corrected, as the court has power to reconsider the allowance or disallowance of claims. (Section 2 2.) It is true that under the former act it was repeatedly held that that act nowhere directed, nor did it contemplate the postponement of a vote for assignee while a dispute was pending as to the allowance of a claim to which objection was made; that on the contrary it contemplated the utmost practical expedition in chosing an assignee, and that the creditors whose claims were allowed were in no way obliged to postpone the election of assignee until the determination of disputed claims. (In re Northern Iron Co., 14 B. R. 356; in re G. Jackson, I4 B. R. 449; in r.-Lake Superior S. C. R. R., 7 B. R. 376.) But it is to be noted that that act expressly provided (act of I867, section 13), that " when a claim is presented for proof before the election of an assignee and a judge entertains doubts of its validity and the right of a creditor to prove it, and is of opinion that such validity or right ought to be investigated by the assignee, he may postpone the proof of the claim until the assignee is chosen; " while the present act expressly provides that before proceeding with the other business...

(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

The Teferee has no jurisdiction to determine the question as to discharge, but the court may refer the case to him generally for a report. He aids the court like a master in chancery.

C, I'orto ltlco), 0 Am. B. R. 763.

For Bankrupts in Voluntary Cases.--Here the cases take a wide range. The allowance itself and the amount are both discretionary. 16. See In re Evans. 8 Am. B. R.

R. 419, 95 It has been held on the one hand that the attorney for the bankrupt is merely a general creditor entitled to dividends;x and, on the other, that he is entitled to an allowance for all services to the bankrupt during the proceeding, whether beneficial to the estate or not, even those connected with the discharge; and, in addition, to priority of payment.27 The safer rule is that the bankrupt's attorney is only entitled to compensation out of the estate for services, which though performed for the bankrupt, are really " in aid of the estate and its administration."28 This excludes services in connection with the discharge,28 and, it is thought, save in exceptional instances, everything done after the appointment of t...
