Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 385 F.2d 835 (4th Cir. 1967) Argued November 6, 1967
Decided November 10, 1967

Fenton L. Martin, Baltimore, Md. (Frederick J. Singley, Jr., and Hinkley & Singley, Baltimore, Md., on brief), for appellant.

David F. Albright, Baltimore, Md. (Bradley T. J. Mettee, Jr., and Semmes, Bowen & Semmes, Baltimore, Md., on brief), for appellee.

Before HAYNSWORTH, Chief Judge, MARVIN JONES,*  Senior Judge, and BUTZNER, Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM:


While we think the District Court had jurisdiction to inquire into the matter, particularly to determine the bona fides of the partnership in which the bankrupt was a limited partner, we agree, for the reasons stated in the opinion of the District Court, filed on July 6, 1967,1  that the bankrupt's interest as a limited partner gave the bankruptcy court no power to administer real estate owned by the partnership or to enjoin its sale under foreclosure by the mortgagee.

Affirmed.
