Filing brief

Morgrove Holsteins: a company that could not appear at its own receivership

Two brothers each own half of a cattle farm outside Brantford and each guaranteed its $1.5 million of bank debt. One negotiated a refinancing with another bank. The other refused to sign, not wanting to increase his exposure to a failing business. The motion to compel him was abandoned the day before the hearing, and nobody appeared for the company at all.
