Manuel v. Martin
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
Manuel v. Martin, 199 F. 989 (5th Cir. 1912)
117 C.C.A. 665; 1912 U.S. App. LEXIS 1791
Cubiam, Fosteb, Pabdee, Shelby
Manuel v. Martin
Opinion of the Court
The Circuit Court had jurisdiction of this case by reason of diverse citizenship of the parties and as between the original parties to the note sued on. See Annotated Statutes, vol. 4, page 310, and Parker v. Ormsby, 141 U. S. 81, 11 Sup. Ct. 912, 35 L. Ed. 654. Judgment was correctly given against the plaintiffs in error, because the plaintiff below was the assignee of a purchaser for value and before maturity without notice of any equities existing between the original makers to the note. The judgment of the Circuit Court is affirmed.
