Lumber Men and Civil Liberties Case In San Antonio
The San Antonio chapter of the Texas Civil Liberties Union will file a friend of the court brief for Montgomery F. Cameron who was convicted of theft by false pretext and sentenced to two years. The group cites a Sixth Amendment issue after Cameron was indicted for one theft type but tried for another. Cameron’s father plans an appeal to the U S Supreme Court. The chapter aligns with the ACLU and emphasizes constitutional questions over personal criticism of the district attorney.
