STATE TO FIGHT
RELEASE WRITS
Prisoners Seek Freedom on
TeChniCaIitieS.

Unusual legal questions arose to-
day at La Porte in connection with
three habeaS corpus writs sought for
prisoners at the Indiana State Pris-
on at Michigan City.
The first case which will be ar
gued for the State by Bernard Kelt-
ner, deputy attorney general, is that
of Thomas H. DranginiS, who was
sentenced Dec. %, 1923, by Judge
James A. Collins Of the Marion
Criminal Court to not less than ten
years and not more than twenty
five years in the State Prison on a
charge of auto banditry.
Attorneys for Dranginis argue that
such a sentence is void because the
law provides that auto banditry
must be punished by a determinate
not indeterminate. sentence
Keltner also will oppose the re-
lease Of Archie Wells and Albert
Banks. sentenced in the Floyd Cir
cult Court. Jan. %, 1923. to five to
fourteen years at the State Re
formatory for robbery. After adj
mission to the reformatory Judge
John NJ. Paris changed the sentence
to from ten to twenty years in the
State penitentiary.
Attorneys for the two prisoners
argue that the judge lost his juris-
diction after the term of court in
which the original sentence was
passed, and that by changing his
sentence in another term he yoided
the entire case.
Keltner will base his argument on
the point that when a prisoner is
held by warrants issued by courts of
competent jurisdiction legality OF
restraint cen rot be investigated.
