Argument that title governs a semicolon case in Pennsylvania
March 13, 1913 Judge Hinckley heard the famous semicolon case to decide if county salaries should rise or fall by 41,800. County Solicitor Siggins and District Attorney Lyons argued that the title governs, noting the line after enumeration of salaries uses a semicolon before a clause on salaries for counties by population. The judge reserved decision, with a ruling expected within two weeks. the debate focused on whether the title or the body text controls the interpretation of the provision.
