Three Motions Filed
To Upset Verdict in
Medical Trust Case
Documents Are Given
To Clerk Of Court Just
Before Office Closes

Three motions were filed in the
District Court antitrust medical
case late today by counsel for the
American Medical Association and
the District Medical Society in a
move to upset the verdicts of guilty
returned against these two corpora
tions last Friday night.
The motions are:
/. To set aside the verdict and OBJ
tain judgment for the defendants.
2. A motion in arrested judgment.
3. A motion for a new trial.
The documents were filed with the
clerk of Criminal Court just before
the office closed at o'clock. Repre-
senting the defense in filing the
motion were Edwark Burke, counsel
for the A. M. A, and Warren Magee.
Acts Through Agents.
In a motion to set aside the ver-
dict the defendants pointed out that
the law holds a corporation can only
act through its officers, agents and
employees. In the present case, as a
matter of fact" said the motion,
"the evidence shows that the two
corporations could only have acted
by the officers, agents and employees,
all of whom have been acquitted.
AS the theory upon which a cor
poration can be held criminally re-
sponsible is that the illegal acts and
intentions of its employees can be
imputed to the corporation, it fol-
lows that in this case there is no
factual foundation for inferring that
the corporations are guilty
The next step in the case will be
for counsel on both sides to appear
before Justice James M Proctor,
who will set date for hearing on
the motions.
AS the Easter recess begins Fri
day, and court will not reconVene
until April 81. it is expected that
the next step In the case might go
over until some time late in April.
The defendents in the case were
charged with violation of the Sher-
man Antitrust Act through al
legged activity against Group Health
Association.
