Check of Docket Reveals
489 Have Been Decided
Up to Dec. Fl.

Four hundred eighty-nine cases
have been decided by the Indiana
appellate court from Jan. /, 1929, to
Dec. Fl, according to compilation
made today by the docket clerk.
This is new record for decisions,
1t was said
OF 1871 civil cases acted upon, 228
were affirmed, eighty-three reversed,
seventeen dismissed and four trans
terred to the supreme court.
The 1929 legislature provided for
transfer Of misdemeanor cases to
the appellate court from the SUI
preme court. One hundred and
fifty-eight Of these cases have been
decided, the record shows, which
is a greater number than all cases
decided by the supreme court since
the transfer was made.
Since Jan. /, the supreme court
has unloaded 451 cases on the ap-
pellate court. Transfers included
285 civil and 1865 criminal cases.
There are 221 undecided cases on
the appellate docket, of which 213
are civil and eight criminal cases.
OF the eight criminal cases, only
two are briefed fully and ready for
decision. OF the 213 cases, but
hirty-five are briefed fully.
This leaves only thirty-seven
cases actually pending decision at
the new year, which Is new record
for docket clearance, it was pointed
out.
