Attorneys Seek Stay of Moon Execution in VA Case
Attorneys for Norman W. Moon urged a halt to his pending execution in Uniontown Virginia, filing for a Writ of Certiorari with the U S Supreme Court and seeking a governor's stay and Pardon Board review. They challenge a state Supreme Court ruling denying Moon's claim that his mental condition barred trial for the courtroom slaying of Judge Allison D. Wade in 1954. Moon had previously received a stay from a lower court.

Moon case delays after sanity commission ruling
Gov. George M Leader on September 30 sought permission for the U S District Court in Pittsburgh to obtain the case. The District Court refused Moon's petition. An appeal for commutation awaits the Pardons Board. Action has been withheld pending court outcomes. Moon shot Wade during a non support hearing in January 1954 and escaped court custody before being recaptured. A sanity commission found Moon sane despite a mental disorder, but state courts ruled him legally sane.
