Indictment Inquiry Clouds Topeka Judge Snider Case
A Topeka lawyer presented arguments before the grand jury challenging portions of the insurance commissioner's conduct. He argued that $12,900 received from an insurance company should have been deposited within 30 days, some of which remains in a bank. He also contends the $1,000 attorney fee paid to Judge W C Watt lacked proper authority, and questions whether the insurance department may cover such expenses or pay outside counsel. The judge is awaiting grand jury action on possible indictment.
