Ing 10 the disposal OF property bought
on the iuStallment plan before the Iull
payments are made, Judge Muilowny
today gave a decision which may prove
a lCOphole for the escape or large
number o. persons arrested on similar
charges.
Miss Turner was charged by Leon
Goldberg with having obtained a dia-
rnond ring from him, on aErecmeEt 70
nav 81 a week According 90 MS state

the ring later, but continued 10 make

siblo Tor the Miss Turner 20 take II
out Of Dawn, but forcing her 20 continue
the payments. When she refused to
make any more payments until ue al
lowed her to reclaim the ring, Goldberg
had her arrested.
Judge MulIowny, in his opinion, ruled

That the extent Of the padding tn
