Supreme Court of Appeals Affirms Fayette Slayers Term
The state high court reversed a lower court in four decisions yesterday. It held that county superintendents may approve school site plans and that refusals are not subject to judicial review without clear proof of willful misconduct. In a separate case, the court affirmed a murder conviction under the self defense standard, upholding an eight year sentence for McMiltton based on a Fayette County trial. The homicide occurred when officers and an informant gathered on a Frye County road to await a suspect vehicle.
