    (Argued February 1, 1921;
    decided March 1, 1921.)
    Appeal from a judgment, entered February 13, 1920, upon an order of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the second judicial department, reversing a judgment of Special Term in so far as it held the defendants, respondents, hable as stockholders of the Union Bank of Brooklyn and directed a dismissal of the complaint as to them. The action was brought by the superintendent of banks to enforce the statutory stockholders’ liability to the extent of the full amount of the stock of an insolvent bank alleged to be held by defendants. The Appellate Division held that the defendants, respondents, were not stockholders in the •insolvent bank and that so far as they had any interest in its stock it was as collateral for the security of payment of a debt.

      Luke D. Stapleton and Conrad Saxe Keyes for Home Bank of Brooklyn, respondent.
    
      Louis F. Doyle and Warren Bigelow for William A. Main, respondent.
   Judgment affirmed, with costs; no opinion.
