Liability debated in Southern University shootings
A state investigating panel says local authorities must determine possible personal criminal liability in the November 16 confrontation at Southern University where two students, Denver A. Smith and Leonard D. Brown, were killed. The report notes a fatal shot likely came from a deputy area but does not name the shooter or the six individuals gathered there. The attorney general says the evidence points to a deputy but stops short of identifying responsible parties, sending findings to the parish district attorney for action.

Seasonal tax relief for lake resort affirmed by Minnesota Supreme Court
The Minnesota Supreme Court ruled Otis Lodge Inc may classify its Itasca County resort as seasonal property, granting a lower tax rate after noting the facility operated 245 days in 1968. The decision defines seasonal as property used for temporary recreational occupancy under favorable conditions, not limited to classic seasons. The ruling also addressed a separate case denying an infant's suit against her parents for injuries from biting an electric cord, upholding immunity based on ordinary parental discretion.
