Federal Judge Holds Lower
Court Had Jurisdiction and
Dismisses Case.
BY Associated Press :

By Associated Press:
INDIANAPOLIS. June 22.-Judge
Ferdinand A. Gieger in the federal
court here Wednesday. dismissed the
suit Of John B. Porter Of Buffalo.
y. Y. for an injunction against the
Revere Motor Car Corporation. and
the Citizens Loan and Trust Com
pany of LOgansport. receiver. to pre-
vent proposed reorganization Of
the corporation.
In taking this action the court
granted Porter the privilege Of re-
newing his APPLICATION on a further
showing OF evidence in the next Is
days. Announcement was made by
Porter's counsel that another bill
would be filed in the federal court
and that action also would be
brought in the Cass circuit court
Judge Gieger ruled that he could
not grant a restraining order on the
original bill of complaint filed by
Porter because he said jurisdiction
lies with the Cass circuit court
which is administering the affairs Of
the corporation under receivership
proceedings. Porter's complaint al
legged the reorganization was being
made for the purpose of freezing
out" stockholders. and that a friend
ly receivership suit in the Cas- cir
cult court was a part Of the program.
Judge Gieger said that il the aver
ments in the bill were true. the re-
ceiver appointed by the Cas- court
has been derelict in it's duty through
permitting operations that might
bring loss TO stockholders, and if
such were true. he added the Cass
court should be informed of the
dereliction.
