Men Sent to Jail by Judge Brown
Apply for Writs of Habeas
Corpus.
SAY HE HAS NO POWER
ONE MAY BE CHARGED WITH
MORE SERIOUS oFFENsE.

The jurisdiction of the juvenile court,
and probably it's right to existence, will
be tested in two habeas corpus actions
which were filed in the district court
yesterday. Arguments in the cases will
be heard before Judge Lewis at 7:3O
o'clock this evening.
The applicants for the writs OF habeas
corpus are Al Miller, recently floor man.
ager ut The Utahna Park dancing pa
vilion, and Carl BaUghman, a friend.
Both were recently committed to the
county Jail by Judge Willis Brown of the
to acts which contributed to the de-
linquency" of q 17-year-Old girl Both
are grown men.
In their applications for writs of ha-
beaS corpus, both men assert that Judge
Brown was without jurisdiction TO pun
ish them. 1t is said, however, that, in
the argument, their attorney will con-
tend that the lack of jurisdiction arises
from the unconstitutionality of the law
ell of the Second district court has up
held the constitutionality of the juvenile
court act but the question has never
been passed upon by the state sUprenc
court and it may go there whichever
way Judge Lewis decides it,
In the event Miller is discharged. a
much more serious charge may be filed
against him in the district court, based
on his confession 10 Judge Brown. In
filed against him regardless of his SEN
tence by Judge Brown He received six
months and BauChman thirty days in
the county jail The girl in the case
was sent to the state Industrial school
at Ogden.
