• United States v. Elliott, 571 F.2d 880 (5th Cir. 1978)
  …394, 181 S.E. 2d 288 (1971); Ga.Code Ann. § 68-411a(c) (1975). Accordingly, we hold that a Georgia State Certificate of Title is a “security”, as defined in 18 U.S.C. § 2311. Cf. United States v. Dickson, 462 F. 2d 184 (4th Cir. 1972), cert. denied, 409 U.S. 876, 93 S.Ct. 126, 34 L.Ed.2d 129. Although appellants cite United States v. Canton, 470 F. 2d 861 (2d Cir. 1972), as authority to the contrary, we note that Canton involved a counterfeit New York State certificate of registration “the purpose of which…

• Furtado v. Bishop, 604 F.2d 80 (1st Cir. 1979)
  …at 895. Assuming that prejudgment interest can also legitimately have a punitive purpose when a defendant has obstinately delayed payment to an injured party, see Rivera v. [*98] Rederi A/B Nordstjernan, 456 F. 2d 970, 976 (1st Cir.), cert. denied, 409 U.S. 876, 93 S.Ct. 124, 34 L.Ed.2d 128 (1972), such interest will not be warranted in every case. By the same token, we have reservations about an inflexible rule barring prejudgment interest in a section 1983 action. Such a rule is arguably appropriate beca…
