Judge Denies Bell Venue Change in $29 Million Suit
District Judge Peter Michael Curry refused Western Bell Telephone’s request to move the libel and slander case filed by James Ashley and the Gravitt family from Bexar County. The judge ruled the trial could occur locally, basing the decision on 14 witnesses. The suit, filed November 1974, seeks about $28 million and alleges adverse publicity and a later wrongful death linked to Bell in Dallas.
