In re Hoffmann

102 F. 979 | S.D.N.Y. | 1900

BROWN, District Judge.

Upon the evidence in the above case a jury would, in my judgment, find without hesitation that the transfer to Dolon was a mere subterfuge and sham, and that the business was in effect all the time the business of the bankrupt, as before, carried on upon a secret trust for his benefit, and hence a concealment of assets from the trustee which should bar the bankrupt’s discharge.
