BEHYMER CORPORATION v. STEFFE

No. 32104.

400 S.W.2d 457 (1966)

BEHYMER CORPORATION, a Corporation, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Joseph C. STEFFE et ux., Defendants, Joseph C. Steffe, Respondent.

St. Louis Court of Appeals, Missouri.

February 15, 1966.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Leyhe, Jacobsmeyer & Meyer, R. W. Jacobsmeyer, William H. Leyhe, III, Clayton, for appellant.

Pannell & Hess, W. L. Pannell, Festus, for respondent.


CLEMENS, Commissioner.

This appeal arises from an order quashing a writ of execution. The only issue is whether the plaintiff's judgment is barred by defendant Joseph C. Steffe's discharge in bankruptcy; and that, in turn, depends on the question of due notice of the bankruptcy proceeding.

A discharge in bankruptcy does not automatically release the bankrupt from all his debts. As said in the case of In re Perel, D.C.Tex., 51 F.2d 506
