Melville Fuller,
Pickens v. Roy — Opinion of the Court
“ After the adjudication, and on November 2, 1899, Pickens filed an answer in the chancery cause, in which he set up the proceedings in bankruptcy, asked that all further action in the state court might be suspended until the district court had disposed of those proceedings, and contended that all his estate, rights, and interests of every kind and description had passed from the control of the circuit court of Barbour county and into the jurisdiction of the district court. ”
