LEGAL LUMINARIES
Kicking ut the New Appeal RuI,

The legal luminaries Of the city, and es-
pocially those who practice at Judge SMELLS
bar, are excited over the new appeal rule
passed by the Supreme Court of tho District to
govern the cases appealed from tho Police
Court, and which II Is claimed by some will
result In great confusion II not In tho "busting
up OF Snell's august tribunal.
Tho rule is that whom Il prisoner Is sem
tonced by Judge nuviI anu nutvs appeal ne
must pay n fec for docketing and perfecting
tho appeal, and that In tho event OF his failure
to do so in n specified tlme tho prosecuting
o1flcer can call attention In tho Criminal Court
10 the non-perfectlon of the appeal, and have
the case remanded to tho Police Court,
whore tho defendant will BIO rearrested
and committed TO serve the original sentence
rs though no appeal had been taken. The
lawyers claim that when this course has been
gone through and the appellant beon COM
mitted TO jail that 1t VIII be necessary to pro-
cure writ OF habeas corpus, as 1t will be very
clear that the prisoner Is held on a sentence
from which he appealed and which appeal
was, never heard and that he is restricted In
his legal rights.
The only constitutionallty OF the Police
restricted right to appeal Is granted, and that
all persons convicted by 1t have right to q
Jury trial. AS soon as II Is established that
the prisoner has been committed to jail with
out trial by jury, when he appealed for such
trial, Il Will become the duty OF the Supreme
Court 10 direct his immediate release, as he is
constitutionally entitled 10 an unrestrlcted and
unfettered right to appeal for and hayo
trial.
The lawyers aro almost unanimous In pro.
nouncing the rule to be imperative, and IL Is
reported that Judge Smell has expressed his
doubts OF Its legality. When questioned by n
reporter, however, he said that he had not
looked into the matter particularly and would
not decide IL until II was regularly brought TO
his notice. He did not believe In crossing
bridge before lO CQmO 10 IL.
