FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION V. BARNESS
484 F. Supp. 1134 (1980)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was a dispute over the enforcement of a note.
FACTS: Barness (D) sought to avoid enforcement of a promissory note for $64,835 to Centennial Bank. The FDIC (P) came into possession of the note when the Centennial was taken over by regulators. D claimed he signed the note solely to aid Centennial in order to satisfy HUD's loan guaranty requirements for construction projects that the bank was financing. D was a major shareholder of Centennial. P contends that the Uniform Written Obligations Act has control over this situation. The note only contained a bare promise to pay.
