Court Won't Rule On Liquor Seizure In Texas Case
A US Supreme Court decision to not rule on the legality of a Texas state police liquor seizure leaves Roy R. Rainey of Oklahoma City without immediate relief. Rainey had sought return of a car and liquor seized en route from Shreveport to Oklahoma City, after a district court ordered return. The New Orleans circuit court had voided that order, ruling the Texas act governed interstate transport by licensed carriers. A separate Houston story notes a British trade expert predicting Houston’s rising role as a port of entry for British goods bound for Texas cities.
