School District No. 22 v. Prudden

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit
School District No. 22 v. Prudden, 59 F.2d 1073 (10th Cir. 1932)
1932 U.S. App. LEXIS 3625

School District No. 22 v. Prudden

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Appellees, the owners of certain funding bonds and interest coupons attached thereto issued by school district No. 22, Osage county, Okl., brought this suit against such school district, the board of directors of such district, and certain officers of Osage county to secure an injunction enjoining such district and officials from failing and refusing to pay the maturing interest coupons on such bonds, from diverting to other purposes funds in the sinking fund created to pay the principal and interest on such bonds, from refusing to make an itemized statement of the estimated needs of such district for sinking fund purposes to pay such bonds and interest coupons, and from refusing to make an appropriation for such sinking fund purposes, and a decree establishing the validity of such bonds and appellants’ title thereto.

All of the legal questions here presented, except the construction of the stipulation hereinafter adverted to., were fully considered and decided adversly to the contentions of appellants in Board of Education of Town of Carmen, Okl., v. James (C. C. A. 10) 49 F.(2d) 91.

Counsel for appellants undertake to avoid the effect of that decision by the contention that the stipulation of facts filed in this cause admits that the funding bond judgment is void on its face. We have carefully considered this stipulation, and are of the opinion that it is not subject to that construction.

The decree is affirmed.
