Geiger v. City of St. Petersburg Ex Rel. Leland
Geiger v. City of St. Petersburg Ex Rel. Leland
Opinion of the Court
The appeal is from an order confirming sale under foreclosure of improvement lien certificate.
The objection to the order of confirmation is based upon the premis'es that the court ordered the sale to be made by the Master to the highest and best bidder for cash; that the bidder, upon the acceptancy of his bid by the Master, then and there gave the Master a check for $500.00 and later in the same day gave the Master an additional check for $9500.00, making a total of $10,000.00, the amount of the bid; and'that the Master on the succeeding day cashed the two checks and thereupon made Master’s Deed and reported his acts to the court for confirmation of ’sale; that objections were made to confirmation because the sale was not made for cash.
The transaction as outlined above substantially complied with the decree ordering the sale made for cash and the court below so properly considered it when the sale was confirmed.
There is no merit in the contentions presented on this appeal and the order appealed from is affirmed.
So ordered.
