IN RE STERLING

No. 8666.

97 F.2d 505 (1938)

In re STERLING. BERNSTEIN et al. v. LAUGHARN.

Circuit Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

June 2, 1938.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Roland G. Swaffield and Thomas F. McCarry, both of Los Angeles, Cal., for Bernstein et al.

Joseph Rifkind and Raphael Dechter, both of Los Angeles, Cal., for Laugharn, trustee.

Before DENMAN, MATHEWS, and HEALY, Circuit Judges.

DENMAN, Circuit Judge.

The petition for rehearing claims that because the Lion Petroleum Corporation is found to be the "alter ego" of Jack Davis Sterling, we must disregard the company's corporate entity and treat the sale of the stock as having been made by Sterling himself.

The effect of the Lion Petroleum Corporation being the "alter ego" of Sterling must be determined by California law, since it is a California statute which governs this case.
