John v. Holmes v. United States of America
Opinion
This suit was filed in the District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. All the essential elements of the controversy had thrice been litigated and decided in Oklahoma, (Securities and Exchange Commission v. Bond and Share Corp., D.C., 229 F.Supp. 88) and North Carolina (Holmes v. Eddy, 4 Cir, 341 F.2d 477). When this was appropriately raised in the Court below there was summary judgment for Defendants by application of the rule of res adjudicata.
This determination, 231 F.Supp. 971, was correct.
Commissioner of Internal Revenue v. Sunnen (1948) 333 U.S. 591, 68 S.Ct. 715, 92 L.Ed. 898. Baltimore S.S. Co. v. Phillips (1927) 274 U.S. 316, 47 S.Ct. 600, 71 L.Ed. 1069. Matthews v. Wolvin, 5 Cir., 266 F.2d 722, and Estevez v. Nabers, 5 Cir, 219 F.2d 321.
Affirmed.
