Is Assailed by Court

Reversing the decision of Justice
Noonan ir the Ninth District Munich
pal Court, in the suit Of Samuel Sher-
man against the Auto Bankers, Inc,
the Appellate Term of the Supreme
Court yesterday suggested that the
papers be sent to the District Attorney,
and that the conduct Of Clyde f.
Black. attorney. and also president and
treasurer of the defendant. be called
TO the attention Of the Bar Association.
Justice Delehanty. who wrote the
opinion in which Justice Cohalan and
Justice Guy concurred, expressed sur
nrise that Justice Noonan should dis
miss Sherman's complaint TO recover
sl25.
The Auto Bankers had Offices on the
tenth floor at 225 Fifth Avenue when
Sherman did business with the corpor-
alton, and, as Justice Delehanty said:
"presumably as near heaven as any OF
its officers will ever reach
In March. 1916, Sherman went to the
Office TO purchase an automobile. He
met a man named Marks. The plaintiff
accepted the terms. which were S125 in
cash, sl25 on delivery of the car and
monthly -instalments thereafter. Sher-
man gave Marks Sl20. Tor when ne
took receipt bearing the name of the
company. Not receiving the car he
telephoned the defendant. After wait
ing longer, Sherman called on Marks,
and was told the machine would be
delivered at an early date. Marks de-
manded the second Sl25. This being
contrary to the agreement. Sherman
refused il until he got his car. He de.
manded the money which he had
already paid, which Marks would not
return.
lie talked the matter over with
Black, attorney. president and treas
urer, and receiving no more satlstac-
tion. sued.
Justice Delehanty said that not only
was Sherman entitled to judgment
against the defendant. "but also 10 a
vigorous prosecution by the criminal
authorities Of those who have pur-
loined his money"
