Trials stalled as Judge delays jurors until April
In a busy court session Judge Platt postponed juries to April 6 and pardoned several jurors for the term. Many cases against Thomas Cascaden Jr and others were dismissed at the judge's direction, with costs taxed to plaintiffs. Nora J Walker was granted a divorce from Harry D Walker with custody of a minor child. The docket shows Big Turoads and a flood of delayed cases, as hundreds of cases have been tried, settled, or dismissed since September. The court urged attorneys to have cases ready to avoid further jury discharge.
