LAWYERS RILED
BY STREET CAR
COURT TACTICS

Lawyers and litigants with cases
pending in circuit court are lndlg--
nant of the system recently adopted
by the street railway company in
having the cases transferred to the
federal court.
The gas and electric company is
also in for a share of blame but not
to the extent of the street car COM
pany.
The companies being foreign cor.
porations ordinarily have a right to'
transfer their cases when they file
their answers, but are required to
take advantage gof this right as the
first motion.
However, since the concerns are
operating under receivers appointed
by the federal court, they have a
right at any time before the case is,
called for trial to make the transfer
Persons with causes against the
street car company go to the trouble
and expense of having witnesses
summoned and their cases made
ready for trial only to find day or
two before that they have been
transferred to the federal court.
There is no telling when the fed
eral court will try the cases that
are piling up in the court. There Is
no federal judge and no telling when
there will be one for the Western
district.
Recently attorneys for the street
car company transferred so cases at
one time to the federal court. Con-
siderably more than 100 have gone
the same way. > ..'
With the crowded condition of the
circuit court docket it is several
months under ordinary circumstan-
ces before a damage suit comes to
trial. After the case has been pend
ing for a long time in the state court,
the lawyers now, under their rights
as attorneys for the company in the
hands of receivers, take advantage
of the privilege of transferring the
cases to the federal court where
they are in for another long delay.
In addition to the delay there is
an expense attached to the trial of
a case in federal court far in ex-
cess of that encountered in the state
courts. Cases appealed from the cir
cult court go to the court Of appeals
and finally to the supreme court sit
ting in Jackson.
Cases appealed from the federal
court go to the court of appeals in
Cincinnati. The court will not &C
cept any but printed briefs and the
whole system of litigation is far in
excess of the expenses incurred in
state courts.
There is no relief from the situa-
ton complained of. but the lawyers
with cases against the street car
company are resentful against what
they consider an unfair delay in
postponing trial. 1t is pointed out
that the company never fails to make
a plea for public sympathy and as
sistance in its difficulties and at the
same time never fails to take ad-
vantage Of any technicality in it's
own favor.
