Godding indictments ouashed.

In the district court last Wednes-
day Judge Rizcr delivered very
lengthy and exhaustive opinion upon
the motion to quash the indictments
against John r. Godding. six of which
were filed in the district court since
he was released from the penitentiary
where he served term for receiving
deposits in the Rocky Ford State
Bank after he knew II Was In an in.
solvent condition. The motion was
argued on January Sd. Judge voor-
he's. Of Pueblo. and T.. c. Glenn. Of
Rocky Ford appearing for the de-
fense aud District Attorney Davidson
and \. u. Wallis for the defense.
The contc cniion was as To whether
or not receiving deposits after a
bank was known to be insolyent con
stituted a misdemeanor or a felony,
Under lony charge the statutes OF
limitations expires In three years
and In a misdemeanor charge In eigh
teen months. The attorneys for the
defense argued that the offcnse was
n misdem, amor and the statutes OF
limitations had expired. while the
prosecution cont.nd.d that II was
felony charge. There Is nothing In
the statutes OF Colorado defining the
offensc. as 10 whether II Is mis-.
demeanor or felony. and as Judge
Rizer said he was In doubt he could
do nothing less than give Godding
the benefit Of the doubt.
The motion TO quash the indict.
mcnt was sustained and Godding is
now a free man so far ms the bank
failure is concerned. 1t Is reported
