Opposing Interest

By "opchoose an assignee in bankruptcy, ''the judge, or, if there be no opposing interest, the register, sliall appoint," — is meant not merely an interest contending, by vote, for the election of a particular person, but an interest in opposition to any exercise of the power of appointment by the register. Where it appeared, upon a petition for review of proceedings before a register for the appointment of an assignee, that no specific objection was made before him, to his making an appointment, but the controversy was as to the person to be chosen, and the opposition was to the individual finally named by the register, it was held that the appointment should be confirmed, ^e Jackson, 14 Bankr. Beg. 449.
