JUDGMENT UPHELD NEW ORLEANS, January 27 (AP).A judgment of $5,427.18, rendered in Federal Court in the Southern district of Florida in favor of the American Surety Co. of New York against Sarasota County, Fla., was affirmed today by the Fifth United States Circuit Court of Appeals. The New York concern was surety on the bond of the American National Bank of Sarasota to secure public deposits. The bank failed in May, 1928, but the receiver turned back to the county $11,939.23 of its deposits. Prior to this transaction the surety company gave the county $10,000. The county deducted $5,427.18, an amount owed for bridge construction work, and sent the remainder back to the surety company.
