STATE SENATE SITTING AS HIGH
IMPEACHMENT COURT RE.
TURNS FINDINGS. :.
CAN MAKE NO APPEAL
Findings Against the Shelby County
Criminal Judge Are FInal--Is Dis
qualified From Holding office
In Tennessee.

Nashville.
Judge Jesse Edgington of Shelby
county has been formally declared
convicted by the high court of i'm
parchment, and his office declared va.
cant. The defendant is also barred
by the court from forever again hold
ing any office in the state Of Tonnes
see Costs Of the trial, estimated at
$4,000, are assessed against the de-
PENDANT.
The formal judgment of the court
was handed down shortly after noon
on June 16, when voting on all arti-
Giles of the impeachment charges was
concluded.
A tabulation of the articles and tho
way the senators voted, shows that
Judge Edgington was convicted on
eight counts and held not guilty on
10. Two OF the articles had previous
ly been dismissed.
The testimony of former Police Ser
geant Larry Long was disregarded by
the court, but that OF Brignardeilo
was approved, if the vote on the ar
ticles signifies anything. Edgington
was found not guilty of all charges to
which Long testified.
All articles referring to the rela.
tons between Judge Edgington and
Clarence Friedman were laid aside as
insufficient by the court.
The most significant vote was that
convicting Edgington on article 25,
in which 1t was charged that he con-
federated and consplred with Attor-
ney-General Estes TO return 80 indict-
ments in the Stadmiller lase to pile
up unlawful court costs to get fees.
II further charges that Edgington con-
spired in making false court records.

der which Judge Edgington was found
guilty are as follows:

Article 5-Guilty of giving immun-
ity for brides, including the Monte
verde and Coan charges.
Article Guilty of permitting liq-
uor cases to be dismissed and his court
made refuge for criminals and per-
sons Of i'll repute.
