SUPREME COURT


IN the supreme court yesterday an
opinion was filed In the case of State
81 North Dakota vs.. Geo. NJ Newton,
being an appeal from an order 81 the
district court OF Williams county, I
adj udging the defendant id this case'
guilty of criminal contempt, and
sentencing him to imp onment and ]
fine. The alleged contempt consisted
in violating a perpetual Injunction Is.
sued by the court at a previous time
restraining Newton from MAINTAINING
a liquor nuisance in certain building
in the city Of Williston. The pro- BRO
ceedings were Instituted by the issu-,
ance Of an order for the arrest 81 an
PEI. psllant an reaairing him to show
cause why he should not be adjndged
guilty 81 cont Tempt and punished. ffhis
order was based so S,f 81 n Upon 81 an
affidavit made by the state Attorney
of Williams county. The afidavit
contained numerous statements wholly
upon Information and belief, tending
to prove violation by Newton Of the,
injunctional order. asss fs I. I. 1
In the supreme count 1T was CON
coded BY the attorney Who made the
affidavit in question that, it was en-
tirely upon information and belief,
but it was contended BY the statess
attorney that defendant, by pleading
guilty ITO the order. waived the defect.
Following several decisions previously
rendered, the court entered an order
yesterday, reversing the order Of the
district count and directing that the
proceedings be dismissed. In this
they followed several former decis-
ions in which they held that an affi-
dayit upon information and belief IS
wholly insufficient upon which to base
constructive criminal contempt pro-.
ceeding and that, no jurisdiction is
acquired under that Palda & Burke
of Minot and W. s. Lauder of Wahpe-
ton appeared as counsel for tie ap-
pellant and Van r. Brown, states at
torney for Williams county, for the
plaintiff. .:s
The opinion Of the. court was writ
ten by Judge Fisk and concurred in
by Chief Justice Morgan. Mr. Justice
Spalding filed an extended dissenting
opinion holding that Newton, having
plead guilty to the criminal contempt
charge, is .estopped from denying the
guf1ciency Of the affidavit upon which
the iniunctionai order issued and, that
by; voluntarily appearing in the dis
trict court hetalso waived any previous
Einvalidity. 4. s5
The syllabus Of the court is as fol.
