Judge Keeler reserve ruling in mandamus case on Fitzgerald demotion

Judge John E. Keeler in the superior court reserved his decision after arguments on the motion to quash an alternative writ of mandamus. The case centers on reinstating Elmer Y. Fitzgerald as a fire lieutenant or showing cause why he should not be reinstated. The dispute arose from December 1920 demotions and the board’s failure to readopt a prior six month promotion rule. The ruling could set precedent for five similar cases against the Bridgeport fire board.
