Slesinski Fights for Release
From Custody-Files
Court Document.

Charges Of conversion of money
filed by Antoni Slesinski, $40 5. Wal
nut St, for his release from custody
of the city police against Alex Grzesk
u local attorney, are contained in d
court late Saturday afternoon ty
Slesinski. through his attornew, Jo-
seph V. Wypiszynski.
Slesinski alleges in his complaint
that on July % of this year he re-
tanned Grzesh to obtain a bond for
him in order to secure his relecse
from custody at police headquarters,
and TO prepare a defense in the case
that was pending at that time against
Slesinski. The complaint recites
that Slesinsh was charged with
grand larceny.
The complaint Of Slesinski further
charges that on the night Of July 25
Grzesk informed Slesinsld that his
bond at police headquarters was
$500. The complaint sets out that
the amount Of the bond in reality
was only $500.
Slesinski's complaint goes on to
Edl LuA LltL l4ldL C4tSAlSkl Dt4OIG TIE
procuring Of the bond paid Grzesk
the sum of S4OO as security for the
bond. Slesinski further says in his
complaint that on July "a he ap-
peared in ii e city court and waived
preliminary hearing and was then
bound over by the Judge Of the city
court to the grand jury. and that
his bond for his appearance before
the grand jury was fixed at $500.
In his complaint Slesinslxi goes on
to say further that the grand Jury
at its regular term failed to indict
him.
Slesinsld further goes on 10 say
in his complaint that Grzesk inform
ed him that the attorneys fee would
be SOS. and that on several occa-
sinos Slesinski requested Grzesk to
return him the $500, less the SIS
attorney fees, but that Grzesk refused
payment, and still refuses to refund
the balance of the $500 claimed by
Slesinsld.
SleEinsld in his complaint says that
he is willing 10 pay the $25 attorney
fees, and that there is still due him
from Grzesk the sum OF 1915.
