JUDGE RRADF Ord RENDERS A be-
CIsIoN IN MS CASE IN THE U. y.
DISTRICT COURT AN AWARD OF
$l,307 80 IN FAvORoF THE GOVERN
MENT.
Judge Bradford In the United Stat 4
Distiict Court at noon to-day, rendered
his decision In the somewhat celebrated
and important case Of the Government
80. Robert v. Rodney, ex-paymaster Of
the U. s. Navy. The defendant Is con-
nected both In this city and New Casil',
and good bit of interest has been felt
la the case.
The issue was one brought by tie
Cover nment TO recover $I,3U7 95, which
It VAS alleged to have been overpaid Mr..
Rodney. The defendant entered the
navy in the capacity # payma,ter on
June 5Oth, 1859. On April 3Oth, 1870,
he was removed from office by the re-
tiring committee, OH charge oil nj mlscon-
duct.
In 1871 the same committee placed
him upon the retired list at halt-pay, aud
was upon the award made by the re.
tiring board that the suit came up.
The suit arose from . mistake made
by the retiring board In awarding the
amount Of ss ary the defendant was "
receive. The law provides that the sal
ary Of = paymaster Of the U. s. Navy,
shall be s., 800 after the first five years vi
his commission, and that previous 70 that
time II shall be one half, or 81, 400. The
law relating TO the retiring Of U. s. ma
val officers, provides that an officer who
Is retired on account Of infirmities re-
ceived In actual service shall be given 70
per Cent Of the service pay and that he
who Is retired from other reasons, shall
only be given 80 per cent Of s.rvice pay
Therefore the award made BY the re-
thing committee, VIII ch placed Mr.. Rod
ney on the retired list At . salary ol
81 40, was wrong and should have been
based on the provisions for All officer y he
had not been In service five years. Fur.
ther than this, he was retired for other
rea ons than that Of infirmiti . received
In actual service. A decision WAS there
fore made in favor Of the government fol
the amount in litigation.
In his decision, the court reviewed the
ia IA of the case ut length, and said thai
the only question that could be raiset
was what was the pay Of the defendant
at the time Of his retirement Accord
ing 10 the law governing such matter.
he should only receive one half Of wha
similar officer would have received
who had been In the service more thar
i've years.
4. g. Bradford, Jr., Esq, one Of coun
sci for the defense arked permission :,
take the case into the circuit court on
writ Of error, ifit was thought necessar,
TO do 30 on consultation with John h
Rodney a., the seuior counsel In tn
use. Tue request was granted. No othe
business was done In court At Its sessiol
to-day.
