SWAMI, Upheld
Tn Removal of
Wendell Trial
vustice Tierney Sustains the
Right of Supreme Court
TO Take Ove-- Any Cases
From General Sessions
Issues Restraining Wri,
Appeal May Delay Hearing
of Comptroller. Travis,
Irdson on Bond Charges

Justice Tierney in Supreme Court
sssserday granted tho petition of Dis
tr;ss Attorney Swami for writ of pro-
s;hition restraining Judge Mcintyre, of
General Sessions, from trying or taking
,ny action in connection with the in
scsments found against State Comp
t-aller Wendell, former State Comp
roller Travis and Albert l.. Judson. a
bOnd broker.
The three men were indicted on a
sbsrge of conspiracy in connection with
The purchase of bonds for the state
while Mr. Travis was Comptroller and
Mr.. Wendell was deputy. The District
Attorney had the case removed from
he Court of General Sessions to the
Sapreme Court for trial. Objection to
his step was made by the defendants
md also by the judges of General Ses-
sions.
@The question is whether the SUI
preme Court had authority to make the
order of removal" said Justice Tierney.
There is no expressed statutory au-
thority for exercising such right. If
il exists it is by force of the common
law solely"
Justice Tierney sustained the right
Of the Supreme Court to take over any
cases from General Sessions. He added:
THE order of remova; may haze
been irregular in form. but that does
not make the action OF the court q
nullity nor can it be regarded as in
operative. If the defendants believe
that they are preiudiced by having
this Indictment removed into the Su-
preme Court by an order instead of a
writ Of certiorari they may move to
have the order vacated. While the order
stands the indictment is removed
into the Supreme Court and the case
IS pending there and the Court of Gem
eral Sessions has no further :urisdic-
,on in the matter"
Judge Rosalsky, of General Sessions,
speaking for the judges of that court.
said: "The decision of Justice Tierney
is not a surprise to US and We shall of
course take an appeal and will carry
the case all the way to the United
States Supreme Court, if necessary
The Supreme Court of this state has
not the inherent power to remove a
case as this case is removed. We did
not want to enter into any controversy
with the Supreme Court, but we had to-
This matter goes back a number of
years"
JOab H. Banton, Acting District At
torney, said he expected to hurry the
trial of Travis, Wendell and Judson,
but that there may be delay by an ap-
peal to the Appellate Division from the
decision of Justice Tierney.
The ruling of Justice Tierney that
the Supreme Court has the power to
remove to that tribunal any cases pend
ing before the Court of General Ses-
sions, probably will result in numerous
other cases being so transferred, par
ticularly the indictments found against
policemen and police officials in the
Investigation conducted by Charles S.
Whitman, as special Assistant District
Attorney.

Papers in Contempt Case
Against Leach Drafted
Counsel for Meyer Committee
10 File Charges Involving
Deputy Police Head

Members of the legal staff of the
State Legislative Committee, appointed
to investigate the Hylan administration,
were busy yesterday drawing up the
papers to be filed in the Supreme Court
in the contempt proceedings to be in
stituted against First Deputy Police
Commissioner John A. Leach.
The action grew out of the refusal of
Commissioner Leach to testify before
Senator Schuyler M. Meyer, chairman
of the investigating body, sitting as a
subcommittee of one. The Commits
soner acted on the advice of Corpora
tion Counsel John p. OBren.
Deputy Attorney General Samuel A.
Berger, one of the examining counsel,
said yesterday that the papers would be
ready shortly and that they would then
be filed.
Several new leads are said to have
come into the hands of the state investi-
gators yesterday as the result of the
examination of witnesses by Senator
Maxwell Harris, sitting as a sub-com-
mittee of one.
Neither the identity of the witnesses
nor the nature of the information they
divulged was made public at the COM
mlttce's Offices at 38 Park Row.
