Dakota Nat. Bank v. Swenson

Dakota Nat. Bank v. Swenson
U.S. Circuit Court for the District of South Dakota · Decided January 5, 1892 · Edgerton, Shihas, Shiras
48 F. 626; 1892 U.S. App. LEXIS 1567
Dakota Nat. Bank v. Swenson

Opinion of the Court

Shihas, J.

The hill herein filed must be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. It does not appear that any of the taxes assessed against the complainant bank or any one of its shareholders exceeds 82,000, and hence it does not appear that the controversy involves “a matter in dispute” exceeding in value §2,000, which under the statute now in force is a requisite to the jurisdiction of this court. For the authorities and grounds m ex-tenso upon which this ruling is based, see opinion just filed in the similar case of Bank v. Swenson, 48 Fed. Rep. 621.

Edgerton, J., concurs.
