VON HAKE LOSES SUIT FOR FEES Court Refuses Pay for Collecting Delinquent Taxes. Holding that a county .treasurer Is not legally entitled to fees on delinquent taxes that are discovered by a tax ferret under special contract with the county commissioners, Judge Vincent G. Clif-1 ford of superior court, room 4, ruled that Carl von Hake, former county treasurer, is not entitled to recover a fee of $966 on collecting $16,105 in delinquent taxes. Judge Clifford held the evidence showed the former treasurer had taken no part in the collection of the delinquent taxes in question and therefore was not entitled to the fees. The county commissioners refused to approve of Von Hake’s claim at the time it was presented to the board for consideration. Von Hake instituted action before Judge Clifford against the county commissioners in an effort to compel them to approve the fee.
