Court Won't Bar New Trial For Rufus In Bastardy Case

The Supreme Court of appeals held that a retrial on a parentage charge against Carl Rufus of Maltens may proceed. It found no constitutional bar to retry after a jury changed verdict from innocent to guilty due to re instructions, noting bastardy is civil not criminal. The court also explained that the earlier innocent verdict could not be reinstated and a new trial had been warranted.
