Linden Wins Again in Civil Appeals Judgment Over Fees

The Fourth Court of Civil Appeals affirmed a lower court ruling ordering Bexar County to pay former District Attorney W. C. Linden 6919.23 for excess fees. The county claimed Linden owed 2818.12 and disputed refunds. Linden said payments were under duress and he could not afford to fight. The decision slightly reformed the award to the county about 200, and an appeal to the Supreme Court was expected. Additional cases Germane to real estate and a local vignette are noted, with brief human-interest aside about a boy and a letter to General Pershing.
