2 In Karrer & Cie. v. Narodowy Bank Polski, 76 Entscheidungen des Schweizerwchen Bundesgerichtes, Part 3, p. 60 (Swiss Federal Tribunal, May 10, 1950), plaintiff sued the Polish state and sought to attach accounts of the Polish National Bank in a Swiss bank. The court upheld the Polish National Bank’s contention that it was a legal person separate and distinct from the Polish state which owned all its stock, and that consequently its property could not be attached on a debt owed by its sole stockholder.
