Suit Filed Over Interest Crediting To Highway Fund In Ohio
Ball Armstrong and the Ohio Contractors Association sue to force crediting highway interest earned from seven cent gas tax back to the highway trust fund. They argue constitutional and statutory requirements tie interest to principal, with Ohio’s treasurer currently crediting to the general fund. The suit names Gilligan Donahey and the Gilligan Administration faces potential loss to general revenues that could affect eleven state funds while Appalachian Highway funding is at stake. The plaintiffs say $11 million in highway interest last year and $48 million depleted funds from 1970 to 1973 justify reversing policy. Knepper White firm represents the plaintiffs with Roger Sabo involved, and the case seeks a court ruling after failed attempts to obtain an attorney general opinion.

Calley parole bid and judge's pretrial publicity concerns
Calley, 31, convicted in 1971 of killing at least 22 Vietnamese civilians, had his life sentence reduced to 10 years and faced potential parole. Lawyer Kenneth Henson criticized pending appeals and noted possible self-disqualification over a bail hearing remark. Elliot’s ruling cited pretrial publicity as a factor in a fair trial, while Calley remained in confinement at Fort Leavenworth before bail was granted last February.
