State v. Ghingher

Opinion of the Court

The opinion was delivered

per Curiam.

Whether or not the deposits made by the State Roads Commission in the Union Trust Company are moneys of the State, within the meaning of section 3 of article 6 of the Constitution, need not be and is not now determined, since the decision of this court in the appeals (advanced) of Ghingher, Receiver, v. Pearson, of Baltimore v. Pearson, and of Pearson v. Ghingher, Bank Commissioner, being, respectively, *331 Nos. 14, 15 and 16 of the October Term, 1933, 165 Md. 273, 168 A. 122. If these deposits are not such moneys of the State, the decisions in Nos. 14 and 15 deny them priority over other deposits within the meaning of section 71-G of the Emergency Banking Act (chapter 46 of the Acts of 1933). On the other hand, if such deposits are moneys, of the State, the decision in No.. 16 determines that no priority exists within the meaning of section 71-G. As the petition of the State and the State Roads. Commission for a writ of mandamus was grounded on the theory of a priority under section 71-G, and this was denied by the trial court in its dismissal of the petition, the judgment will be affirmed.

Judgment affirmed.
