Insurance Companies, State of
North Dakota and Former
Treasurer Involved

A three-cornered! action which has
attracted much attention in North
Dakota was argued in supreme court
Wednesday morning with view to
determining whether the state, the
state treasurer or the insurance com.
panies furnishing the principal are
entitled to the interest on a cash re-
serve or surety which certain class
es Of insurance companies are re-
quired to deposit with the state
treasurer.
This action originated IL district
court some months ago, when an IN.
surance company brought suit to re-
cover the interest on its c:l5h reserve
deposited with the state. The at.
torney general interviewed on behalf
Of the state, claiming that North Da-
kota was entitled to the interest, and
John Stcen, then state treasurer, was
represented on his own behalf.
Judge Nuessle rendered judgment
in favor Of the insurance companies.
The state treasurer and the attorney
general both then appealed, and the
supreme court heard the arguments
Of the three contestants "Wednesday
morning. Theodore Koffel of Bis
marck appeared for Steen, the attor-
ney general. through George X. Fos-
ter, Sone of his assistants, appeared
for the state, and J. A. Heder of the
Mandan firm of Sullivan & Sullivan,
appeared for the insurance company.
