HAWAIIAN TRUST COMPANY v. UNITED STATES

Civ. No. 1619.

178 F.Supp. 637 (1959)

HAWAIIAN TRUST COMPANY, Limited, a Hawaii corporation, Trustee for the Creditors and Stockholders of Pacific Refiners, Limited, a dissolved Hawaii corporation, Plaintiff, v. UNITED STATES of America, Defendant.

United States District Court D. Hawaii.

November 24, 1959.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Anderson, Wrenn & Jenks, by Marshall M. Goodsill, Honolulu, Hawaii, for plaintiff.

Louis B. Blissard, U. S. Atty., Honolulu, Hawaii, for defendant.


ROSS, District Judge.

While counsel for the plaintiff has shown considerable industry and ingenuity in presenting his arguments, that industry and that ingenuity have not availed to counterbalance the essentially tenuous character of his reasoning.

In contrast, the defendant's position is simple, clear, and based upon elementary logic, as well as being supported by statute law and the applicable Treasury Regulations.
