Grand jury ruling in district court shocks legal circles
A significant decision by Judge Reed in the district court clarifies grand jury powers in felony indictments. The ruling holds that felony cases must be tried on an indictment from the grand jury at court terms and that cases moved from justice courts to district court after preliminary trials must be presented to the grand jury. The defense argued county attorneys may prosecute either by indictment or information, while the state contended both options are valid. The court’s opinion emphasizes grand jury primacy in felony prosecutions and upholds protections for defendants against improper proceedings.
