Next Move Is Up To Allred and Judges Hold Firing
AUSTIN Oct 12 The next move rests with Renne Allred Jr after the State Board of Insurance Commissioners and three district judges in Austin ordered Allred to be fired. Court Chairman Garland A Smith announced the judges would set aside their orders appointing Allred as attorney for the receiver of the defunct Texas Mutual Insurance Co. Smith said Allred’s petitions were unfounded and that Blanchard would remain chief examiner. Emmett Shelton, already named as Allred’s successor, would receive the post once Allred turned over his office and files. The three commissioners met with the judges to resolve the matter and noted they now have authority to supervise the liquidator and receivers.
