Federal judge rules part of dry law unconstitutional in Nebraska
Federal Judge J W Woodrough ruled section 23 of the national prohibition law unconstitutional for allowing personal injunctions to jail without jury trials. The case involved Fred Cunningham near Scotts Bluff Nebraska. He refused to grant an injunction to restrain bootlegging, citing the constitutional right to trial by jury. The decision preserves jury trials and rejects compelled nonjury punishment.
