NAVAJO COUNTY
CAR OWNERSHIP
CASE APPEALED

The question as to whether an
automobile owned by wife can be
confiscated to the state when used
by the husband to transport liquor
without the knowledge OF the wife
has been presented to the supreme
court through the appeal of case
from Navajo county.
The appeal is made by Mrs. Lola
Navarro of Winslow, wife of Mike
Navarro, who was convicted by Ma
vajo county officials on a charge of
transporting Intoxicating liquor.
She appeals as intervenOr in the
case of the state against Mike Ma
varro for the confiscation OF the
car
The Navajo county superior court
ruled at the conclusion of the hear
ing OF the case that the car in
question was the community prop
erty Of the couple and that it could
be confiscated to the state. Under
that ruling he decreed the car con-
fiscated for the transportation of
liquor and directed the sheriff to
sell the car. Mrs. Navarro then
appealed to the supreme court from
that order.
AS intervenor, she filed a cross
complaint to the complaint of the
state in which she alleged that she
had bought the car in question with
money given to her by her father
and that her husband took the car
at the time he is alleged to have
transported liquor in it, without
her knowledge and that she knew
nothing of the use of the car un-
til he was arrested.
The state maintained that she
knew of the transportation of the
liquor and that she knew the liquor
he is alleged to have brought from
Mexico in the car, consisting of 80
pints of tequila, 20 pints of Sunny
brook whiskey, 62 quarts of tequila
and II quarts of wine, was buried
in their garage.
During the hearing of the case,
Mrs Navarro introduced a condi-
tional sales contract tending to
show that she purchased the car
and that the sale had been made
to her. The court, however, ruled
that the car had been acquired af
ter their marriage and was there
fore community property and not
the separate property of the wife.
