Settlement of the suit brought
against James Minello by Alfred Hal
perm resulting from a recent business.
deal was accomplished last night at
a conference of the men and their
lawyers and, according to Minello At
torney Joseph 6. Woods, counsel for
the plaintiff, is now arranging to re-
lease the attachments on the defen-
dants property in Plaintiff Minello
declares that Halpern has decided to
withdraw the suit and will stand re-
sponsible for the expense incurred in
preparing for the litigation.
Halpern's action was the sequel to
a deal whereby he gave land and
buildings in New Britain in exchange
for u house and lot and the stock
and good will of the Central Meat
Market, owned by Minello. He
claimed that the local man had not
lived up to the agreement reached
when the sale was made. Minello
refused to call off the deal, claiming
that Halpern evidently thought that
the transfer was ill advised from his
viewpoint.
The suit was for $4,000 and all of
Minello's property was placed under
attachment few days ago.
Judge W. ]. Malone of Bristol, rep
resenting the local man, conferred
last night with Halpern's lawyer, and
it is understood that it was subse-
quently decided to call off the suit,
the plaintiff settling all costs.
The market recently transferred to
Halpern has been closed for several
days, "a number of creditors having
brought suits against the owner.
These have not as yet been settled.
