Taubman Change of Venue Denied in Berens Case
In Mitchell circuit court the motion for a venue change in Nick Berens vs Taubman was argued. Taubman sought Aurora county as the trial site, citing witness inconvenience and justice, but Judge Fellows denied the request saying a jury could not be secured there and a trial should stay in Mitchell. The case involves a $5000 damages claim over a Plankinton Herald article alleged to injure Berens’s character.
