Forgery charge against Livingston dismissed at Butte
In a Christmas hearing Judge Clancy discharged L G Livingston after county and Utah authorities stated they did not want him prosecuted. The case mirrored the DeLyle forgery ruling, with prosecutors citing unavailable forged-name witnesses and lack of bank funds proof. Judge then moved to other matters in Silver King and Plymouth lode suits, adjourning to December 28 while entering a judgment for 574.85 in a Clark & Bro. v Hamill matter.
