Peter Schuehle, Respondent v. Jacob Reiman as Assignee

Summary

The Court reversed the Superior Court of Buffalo's injunction restraining creditors from proceeding in the County Court, holding that the injunction was improper because the action was not brought for the collective benefit of creditors and the court lacked jurisdiction over those creditors. It also affirmed the principle that when two concurrent courts address the same fund, the proceeding first instituted should continue.
