Attorney: Bankrupt Grain Elevator's Bond Too Small
A North Dakota grain elevator was stiffing farmers on grain purchases long before it went broke, and its bonding company should have to pay double its declared coverage as a result, an attorney says.
Sarah Vogel asked the North Dakota Supreme Court on Monday to rule that Hartford Fire Insurance Co. be required to pay $200,000 to cover its bond obligations for Minnesota Grain Inc.'s elevator in Rhame, in southwestern North Dakota.
The elevator was declared insolvent in April 2007 after it could not meet a Bowman farmer's demand that he be paid for grain he had sold to the business. Minnesota Grain operated grain facilities in Rhame and East Grand Forks, Minn.
