Telephone raid ruling thumbs down on Langer action
Minot North Dakota June 29 Judge Leighton held that the only offenders at the May 7 telephone office raid were those who unlawfully seized the exchange. Deputy sheriffs and citizens acted without legal process, trespassed, and Palda’s habeas corpus petition was granted to discharge Palda. The decision notes deputies have no special authority without court process and the trespassers could be removed without excessive force. The act cited as felony concerns obstructing communications by unauthorized means.
