WAYCROSS, Ga, Sept. Upon the
outcome of hearing before Judge t. A.
Parker in waycross September H.
rests the settlement Of the flgnt for the
city court judgshiu in Blackshear.
When quo warranto proceedings were
filed today Judge Parker named Sep
TENDER IA as the date for the hearing
and gave notice to Judge w. A. Milton.
who is claiming the office by an ap-
pointment of Gov. Hoke Smith,
that he must show cause on that date
why he should not be ousted as judge
of the city court. The quo warranto
proceedings were filed by Wilson, Ben
nett & Lambdin for r. G. Mitchell. Jr,
who holds a four-year commission un-
der Gov. Joseph NJ. Brown for the Of
fee Milton claims under a Smith ap-
pointment.
The Blcksahear case is very much
like the fight over the Athens city court
1udgship, but there are some new legal
points involved owing to the readins
of the act creating the city court OF
Blaclshear. Lawyers who have cases
in the city court session due to start
Monday are wondering how verdicts
given with Judge Milton presiding Will
hold. The present incumbent has given
notice that he expects to be on hand
promptly Monday morning to preside,
and under his appointment Judge
Mitchell is due to preside over the same
session.
There is this difference between the
appointments. Judge Millions was not
confirmed by the senate and Judge
Mitchelps was. Judge Mitchell bases
his fight on this fact, and also on the
fact that Judge Millions appointment
was made subject to confirmation by
the senate of 1912. He claims that the
senate of 1912 has ended and that the
Milton appointment has not been con-
firmed.
