Ask Federal Case Before State Trial
LITTLE ROCK AP Atty Gen Joe Purcell and state Highway Commission attorney J L Shaver Jr fled an intervention suit Monday in a taxes payer's suit in Chancery Court. The taxpayer's suit by G D B Nelson of Little Rock alleges five petroleum companies overcharged the state about 3 million dollars on asphalt purchases over several years. A similar case sits in federal District Court. The state's intervention renews the argument that the federal case should be tried first since the state would collect triple damages under federal antitrust laws if won.
