Ruling on Prohibition Write Of Reverend Graflers Indicts
In Grafters case the California Supreme Court ordered the defendants to show cause on August 19 why it should not grant a permanent writ of prohibition preventing further action on Rudolph Solmitts and other indicted figures in a streetcar bribery scheme. The orders followed a long session and mark a victory for the defense, asserting the Oliver grand jury was illegal once new jurors were drawn. The defense argues indictments lack validity and cannot be tried. The case discusses grand jury legality and potential expansion of railway company operations pending further action.
