Mount Saint Mary's College v. The Aetna Casualty & Surety Company and W. Harley Miller, Inc.
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit
Mount Saint Mary's College v. The Aetna Casualty & Surety Company and W. Harley Miller, Inc., 344 F.2d 331 (4th Cir. 1965)
1965 U.S. App. LEXIS 5813
Mount Saint Mary's College v. The Aetna Casualty & Surety Company and W. Harley Miller, Inc.
Opinion
In this diversity action recovery was sought by appellants upon a bid bond executed by the appellees. The latter counterclaimed for cancellation of the bid and return of the bond for mistake in the bid. Hearing the case without a jury, the Court determined that the law of Maryland, the place of the entire transaction, required that the bid be rescinded and the bond redelivered.
On appeal from this decision, we accept the findings of fact and conclusions of law stated by the District Judge in his written opinion, and affirm. See President and Council of Mount Saint Mary’s College v. Aetna Casualty & Surety Company et al., 233 F.Supp. 787 (September 3, 1964).
Affirmed.
