Court delays retrial in Jurgensen case on appeal
Judge Stout calls the case of Jurgensen, then a state corporation president and high official, a matter of great importance. A two to five year sentence is suspended pending appeal. He argues retrial would waste time and money as state witnesses have fixed testimony and could not change it. He notes possible jury difficulty in convicting with inconsistent evidence of alleged similar transactions.
