Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York December 31, 1913 (Rothbarth v. Herzfeld)

Scott, J.:

Plaintiffs, a German firm doing business in Frankfurt-on-Main, Germany, and also in the city of New York, were represented in that city by one Adolph Rothbarth, who held their power of attorney. They kept accounts in two New York city banks, the Mercantile and the Liberty, upon both of which said Adolph Rothbarth had authority to draw checks in plaintiffs’ name.
