at Auburn Friday ordered The 1is-
charge Of Albert LIeSourdals. who was
sent to jan yester6:.y by Judge Cur
IAN of the Lewiston municipal court
for failure to obey an order Of the
court to contribute to The support Of
his wife and children. Lebourdais
had been arrested for neglect of his
family and ordered to pay IS a week
or serve 80 days in Jail. He appealed
and gave bonds for his appearance at
the superior court in February. SUBJ
sequently he was arrested and sent
to Jail by Judge Curran because he
had not made the payments as ord
cred. His attorney claimed that the
appeal vacated the sentence, but
Judge Curran ruled that he must pay
or go to Jail until his appeal was de-
cided by the superior court. Justice
Morrill, ruled that Judge Curran was
wrong in his action. It is the first
case Of its kind ever heard there.
