Gladstone Court Clears Disorderly Case And Appeals
At Gladstone Police Court on May 22 seven youths faced disorderly conduct charges. One defendant received leniency, while three others were fined 1 with 30 costs. An appeal by Melvin Joseph and William Rice led to the conviction being set aside, with findings that mere presence in a disorderly group did not prove aiding and abetting. The full court upheld this view, and related council meetings discussed unregistered dogs and town matters.
