Jacksonville Times Union: The proceed
ings in the circuit court to dsbar A. NJ.
Nicholson came up for a hearing Monday
morning on the motion OF A c. Hartridge
states attorney. and arguments were
made by the states attorney and Michel
son before Judge Call When Judge can
denied the motion of Nicholson for
change of venue. the latter gave notice of
appeal to the supreme court but the ap-
peal was never perfected and Nicholson
stated that his reason for not going be-
fore the supreme court was that he could
not raise the money. The case thus came
up FOR a hearing Monday morning on the
original motion and Michelson's demurrer
thereto States Attorney Hartridge ar
gued the case well, and then Nicholson
replied. He contended that the character
OF mans wife has nothing to do with his
professional standing as a lawyer He also
claimed that his signing of Col Pope's
name to paper. which he contended he
had right to do. should have nothing to
DO with the case against him, and claim
ed that he could only be dsbarred il it
was proven that through his professional
acts, he was unfit to associate with mem
bers of the bar. IF I am to be tried upon
a test of moral reputation" said he t1et
every man in the city who practices law
be prosecuted" He again claimed that the
character OF his wife should not enter into
the case as the profession of law has not
been brought into dsrepute by his mar
riage. Michelson'S argument was from
the stand he took, good one. but his line
of defense was hardly what was expected
of him. After hearing the arguments
Judge CAN called for all the papers in the
case and reserved his decision.
