305 F.2d 753 | D.C. Cir. | 1962
No. 16,503 is an action for damages for the allegedly unauthorized sale by defendants-appellees, who are engaged in the security brokerage business, of securities of the plaintiff-appellant Sarah Henry. At the close of all the evidence, the District Court directed a verdict in favor of the defendants. This appeal followed.
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to plaintiff-appellant, we think
In No. 16,504, the broker-defendants in No. 16,503 appeal from an order denying them leave to file a third-party complaint against the Union Trust Company and the Riggs National Bank, in which they alleged that these banks had guaranteed Mrs. Henry’s endorsements on the checks which defendants had sent to her. In view of our disposition of No. 16.503, it is unnecessary to pass on No. 16.504.
Affirmed.
