Fitzgerald Case Upheld Over Sheriff Fees In Prisons
The appellate court affirmed that Sheriff Fitzgerald of Daviess County cannot claim the inland jail fees for receiving and discharging prisoners, while allowing per diem pay. The Starr case from Delaware County and Fitzgerald from Daviess County frame Mr. Fitzgerald's claims for additional fees and for attending circuit court sessions. The ruling could influence McCord’s similar claims for service as sheriff from 1898 to 1901 and may lead to continued appeals before commissioners.
