Quinton Case in Nebraska District Court Seeks Tax-Back of Costs
In the State of Nebraska v C D Quinton the district court heard a motion to retax costs and strike charges from counts in which the defendant was tried. The $200 fine plus about £1000 in costs are contested with demands to strike witness fees tied to liquor law violations and to remove costs from the first trial deemed a mistrial. The matter follows an appeal to the state supreme court and a mandate to collect the costs and fine.
