In the Matter of the Application of THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, by GEORGE S. VAN SCHAICK, as Superintendent of Insurance of the State of New York, for an Order to Take Possession of the Property and Liquidate the Business and Affairs of the CONSOLIDATED INDEMNITY AND INSURANCE COMPANY. GERTRUDE E. CORON, Individually and as General Guardian of VILMA, GLORIA, GERTRUDE and ELMER CORON, Infants, Claimant, Appellant; CONSOLIDATED INDEMNITY AND INSURANCE COMPANY, Respondent. (Claim No. CO-342.)

PER CURIAM.

The question involved herein relates to the right of the moving party to interest on dividends. The rule is well settled that when payment of a dividend is deferred by reason of an unsuccessful contest of a claim, the creditor so delayed should be allowed interest on the dividend in order to be put on an equality with other creditors who received the dividends and had the use of the money. ( People v. Remington Sons, 59 Hun, 307; affd., 126 N.Y. 679; Armstrong v. American Exchange Bank, 133 U.S. 433; Matter of Carnegie Trust Co., 161 App. Div. 280, 284; L.R.A. 1917D, p. 1167.)

The order should be reversed, with twenty dollars costs and disbursements, and the motion granted.

PER CURIAM.

Order unanimously reversed, with twenty dollars costs and disbursements, and motion granted. Settle order on notice.
