General SummaryThis case is from a collection containing the full text of over 16,000 Supreme Court cases from 1793 to the present. The body of Supreme Court decisions are, effectively, the final interpretation of the Constitution. Only an amendment to the Constitution can permanently overturn an interpretation and this has happened only four times in American history.

State Bank of Hardinsburg v. Brown No. 23 Argued October 16, 1942 Decided November 16, 1942 317 U.S. 135
CERTIORARI TO THE CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE SEVENTH CIRCUIT
Syllabus
1. Under § 75(n) of the Bankruptcy Act, the filing of a farmer debtor’s petition cannot bring into the jurisdiction of the bankruptcy court property which has been sold in mortgage foreclosure proceedings, and as to which, under the state law, every equity or right of the debtor has been extinguished. P. 138.
2. The law of Indiana gives the debtor a year from the institution of foreclosure suit within which to redeem, and terminates his right and interest in the property at the sale. The delivery of a deed by the sheriff becomes a ministerial act constituting merely a record evidence of the purchaser’s title which is perfect from the date of sale. P. 141.
124 F.2d 701 reversed.
Certiorari, 315 U.S. 794, to review a judgment which reversed an order of the bankruptcy court, striking a farm from the bankrupt’s schedules.
