IN RE INTERNATIONAL UNDERWRITERS

No. 22021.

157 F.Supp. 367 (1957)

In the Matter of INTERNATIONAL UNDERWRITERS, Inc., a corporation, Alleged Bankrupt.

United States District Court W. D. Missouri, W. D.

December 30, 1957.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John P. Haley, Jr., Kansas City, Mo., for alleged bankrupt.

Reeder, Gisler, Griffin & Dysart, Kansas City, Mo., for petitioner.


R. JASPER SMITH, District Judge.

An involuntary petition in bankruptcy was filed against International Underwriters, Inc. on December 17, 1956. Within the required time, the alleged bankrupt answered the petition, alleging that it was an insurance corporation within the meaning of Section 22, Chapter 3, Title 11 U.S.C.A., and therefore excepted from the operation of the Bankruptcy Act. This allegation, of course, raises a plea to the jurisdiction of the Court.
