Appeals Court Reverses Arson Case Decision
The fifth district Court of Appeals unanimously reversed and remanded the case of state v Griffin Doster of Massillon. Convicted of arson in Stark County Common Pleas on December 24, 1949, the verdict was set aside due to incompetent testimony by the state regarding the defendant’s wife. Despite a pending divorce, she remained his wife and could not testify against him, requiring a new trial in Common Pleas Court.
