The article discusses various judicial cases. The plaintiffs, stockholders in the defendant corporation, brought suit to compel the directors and officers, also defendants, to return the value of property alleged to have been wrongfully taken. Similar actions, instituted by other stockholders, had been consolidated on motion of the defendants, who moved for dismissal of the present suit under a rule providing for such motion where " there is another action pending between the same parties." The plaintiff consulted the defendant, a New York attorney, with reference to collecting a claim against the executors of a Pennsylvania estate.
