Task: songer_geniss

What follows is an opinion from a United States Court of Appeals.
Your task is to identify the issue in the case, that is, the social and/or political context of the litigation in which more purely legal issues are argued. Put somewhat differently, this field identifies the nature of the conflict between the litigants. The focus here is on the subject matter of the controversy rather than its legal basis. Consider the following categories: "criminal" (including appeals of conviction, petitions for post conviction relief, habeas corpus petitions, and other prisoner petitions which challenge the validity of the conviction or the sentence), "civil rights" (excluding First Amendment or due process; also excluding claims of denial of rights in criminal proceeding or claims by prisoners that challenge their conviction or their sentence (e.g., habeas corpus petitions are coded under the criminal category); does include civil suits instituted by both prisoners and callable non-prisoners alleging denial of rights by criminal justice officials), "First Amendment", "due process" (claims in civil cases by persons other than prisoners, does not include due process challenges to government economic regulation), "privacy", "labor relations", "economic activity and regulation", and "miscellaneous".

FARIS, Circuit Judge.
This is a joint appeal by Herb Ford, Inc., a bankrupt, and the directors of the corporation, who sue as trustees under a Missouri statute (Rev.St.1929, § 699, Mo. St.Ann. § 699, p. 906), so permitting'in a proper case. The case, except for the above lack of identity as to parties plaintiff, and the joinder as a defendant of one Brown, the agent of defendant Ford Motor Company, who made the alleged agreement relied on, involves precisely the facts, pleadings, and vicissitudes of procedure set out and discussed, in the case of Albert Tamm, Trustee of Estate of Herb Ford, Inc., a Bankrupt, Appellant v. Ford Motor Company, Appellee (C.C.A.) 80 F.(2d) 723, this day decided. Doubtful it is plain, touching in whom title to the chose in action vested on bankruptcy, counsel ex abundanti cautelae, deemed it wise to begin and maintain two suits on precisely identical facts.
Because on bankruptcy the title to the chose in action did not pass to the appellants herein, but to the trustee in bankruptcy, and for the other reasons set out in the companion case above styled, this case should be affirmed with costs, which accordingly is ordered.
