Third Trial Of $15000 Damage Suit Set For Monday In Wyoming

In Mullens the third trial in the $15,000 damage suit against the City of Mullens by R. W. Doss is to be heard Monday in Wyoming Circuit Court. The case stems from paving on Holroyd Avenue in 1946-47 that allegedly raised the street grade and affected a store apartment building he owned. The city argues the grade was set before construction and that access remains possible. Previous trials awarded $4,000 then $3,000 but were overturned for legal reasons or juror eligibility. Doss died and the suit continues in his wife Mrs. Myrtie T. Doss’s name.
