Appointment of first insolvency commissioner in county
Probate Judge Alva N. Deal announced the county's first insolvency commissioner to aid the relief of debtors. Joseph L. Floyd was named to the post, which has no salary but case fees, for a three year term. The office handles insolvent defendants in paternity actions and may issue release certificates after hearings and investigations if the debtor has no means to pay. The move follows a prior practice of releasing jailed defendants after 90 days, now cautioned as improper by a state examiner.
