High Court Takes Up Routine Issues
The Arkansas Supreme Court today affirmed three Clark Circuit Court cases including a one year sentence for James Austin Clack who was convicted of carnal abuse of two girls under 16. It reversed a Clark Circuit decision in Covil Orsburn and Associated Definite Corporation v Mary Graves, voiding her Workmen's Compensation award as widow of William Graves. The court also trimmed damages in two other cases, reducing a $20,000 judgment to $12,500 in Texas Motor Freight Lines v John W Buck and others and cutting a $10,000 award in Golenterick v Kurth due to traumatic neurosis and unfixed fears.
