HUTCHINSON NATIONAL BANK AND TRUST COMPANY, Appellant, v. IDA M. BROWN, Appellee.

Court of Appeals of Kansas.

Petition for review denied June 22, 1988.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

William F. Bradley, Jr., and Joan M. Saylor, of Martindell, Swearer, Cabbage, Ricksecker & Hertach, of Hutchinson, for appellant.

Stanley R. Juhnke, of Hutchinson, for appellee.

Before BRISCOE, P.J., RULON, J., and ROBERT L. BISHOP, District Judge, assigned.
