The bar group urged delaying action for further meetings to solidify their stance. Morris Simon Emil S. Bartle and Thomas M. Monahan led about 40 attorneys from Troy and Rensselaer County. Senator Gilbert T. Seelyer of Burnt Hills, sponsor of the bill, indicated the measure will not move in the Senate until the sponsor revises it.
