Point Gained By Harry Thaw In $10,000 Suit
In New York on April 6 the case of Dr Smith Ely Jelliffee seeking $10,000 from Harry K. Thaw gained a procedural win as Judge William Bondy ordered more particulars after Jelliffee failed to fully comply with a prior court order. Jelliffee, who testified for Thaw in his murder trial and later proceedings, says he was not paid for services from 1907 to 1917 and afterward. The suit, begun in 1929, was moved from state to federal court on Thaw’s motion, noting Thaw’s Pennsylvania residence and Jelliffee’s New York residence.
