San Francisco Call, Dec. 23, 1909
Summary:
The East Shore and Suburban Realty Company has initiated a lawsuit against Frederick J. Russell and the Russell City Company regarding a 250-acre land contract near Hayward valued at around $400,000. The plaintiff alleges that Russell, the defendant, violated the contract by selling the land for less than the agreed-upon price per front foot, causing purchasers to renege on their contracts. The East Shore company seeks the appointment of a receiver to enforce the contract without requesting damages.
