therefore, no fine orNsentence was iia-

Judge Fentress answered him coolly
over the phone that he had advised his
client to ignore the subpoena on the
ground that the court had no jurisdlc-
tion In the matter. 1t was then Lieut.,
Smith asked for a subpoena and at
tachment for the arrest OF DR.. Taylor
and also citations for contempt against
both DR.. Taylor and Judge Fentress,
Chancellor Peres declined to cite Judge
Fentress for contempt but ordered the
citation for Or. Taylor
8 Chancellor Peres ruled in part The
subpoena, which was the order of the
court, Is in due form. There is a con-
tempt Of this court in the violation of
this subpoena to the extent OF not APP
pearing and properly making objections
and contesting jurisdiction at the time.
This court, besides being a judge, Is
also a human being and still has 'somG
sense of justice, and Is convinced that
there has been mistaken view Of the
legal status Of this litigation, SO the
court dismisses the citation for con
tempt"
Chancellor Fentress told the court
that no blame attached to his client,
that he alone was to blame for the non :
appearance of DIR. Taylor.
Taking OF the deposition was then be-
gun and the motion to transfer the
case will be heard Friday.
