Indiana Supreme Court rules on remonstrants power in saloon licenses
The court reverses Cochall v Reynolds, holding powers of attorney to sign remonstrances cannot let an attorney decide which applicants are remonstrated against. If the grant directs the attorney to sign for all or specific applicants, the attorney’s act may be as binding as the grantor, but delegation of decision power is invalid. Case arose from Monon White County license petition and local remonstrance authority.
