Circuit Judges Begin Battle
Against LalUS Delay; Appeal
Cases Get Immediate RetriQl

To eliminate delay in bringing 10
a close appealed cases from the JUS
tice courts and circuit court COM
miss;oners. the Wayne circuit
judges have agree. upon plan by
which all cases OF this nature now
pending will be disposed OF prompt
ly and new appealed cases will
come up Immediately.
The new rule Is termed poor
mans measure In that II will pre-
vent litigants who have lost in these
minors cases from seeking further
delay by appealing. In the past. an
appeal meant about years delay
before II came before the higher
court. The delay at times has been
used as a club to force a settle
nent
The new rule reads as follows:
THE county clerk shall prepare
for the September, 1915, term. a
docket which shall! contain. mum
hered in the order OF commence.
ment OF suit. all causes at issue. ex'
cept causes upon appeal from the
circuit court commissioners and
from the Justices courts.
lie shall also prepare list OF
appeal cases. which list shall con
tain, consecutively. in the order OF
the filing OF the return on appeal
all causes appealed from the circuit
court commissioners and all civil
cases appealed from the justices
courts OF Detroit and Wayne coun.
~. The county clerk shall there.
after Immediately add TO such list
each case subsequently appealed
from the circuit court commission
ers and from any Of said Justices
courts.

The Detroit times., 1915-06-30

THE presiding judge shall as
sign the cases upon said list OF ap-
peal cases to one or more judges as
may be determined trvm time To
time, in order that these cases may
be speedily disposed of. II Is the
purpose OF this provision that said
appeal cases be heard and deter
mined Immediately upon the fling
OF the return therein"
Judge Alfred J. Murphy. who Ia
presiding In chancery, made the
following comment on the action OF
the judges: In the year 1914.
there were 2.f26 law or jury cases
commenced in the circuit court. OF
this number. GA were cases ap.
pealcd from the justices court
Thus IL appears that over 25 per
cent OF the jury cases In the court
were Justices court appeal cases
Knowing that by appealing a case
to the circuit court, a delay OF al
least year can now be obtained
the temptation to make such an ap
peal is obvious. In the hope that
the number OF appeals may be re
duced by giving to them immediate
trial In the circuit court, the court
has adopted this rule. II the ex
pertinent proves satisfactory, the
entire law docket will be benefited
for a reduction In the number oil
cases will enable the court TO reach
other cases more speedily. In the
effort TO dispose of all pending ap
peal cases, all the judges OF the
law division of the circuit court dur
ing the first two weeks Of the Sep
TENDER term will try appeal cases
from the Justices courts and Circuit,
court commissioners exclusively"
