Local Defendants
Win in Lawsuit

An Allegany County Circuit
Court jury, celebrating about 80
minutes, last Friday settled $15,-
600 suit for damages by giving its
decision in favor of the two Gar
rett county defendants.
The suit resulted from a COLI
sion between two tractor-trailer
trucks last December IA on Frank
lin street at Carey street in Balti-
more.
Anna Marine trading as United
Fuel Company of Baltimore, origi-
nally filed suit in Garrett Coun-
ty Circuit Court against Paul Wal
Ter Hoye of Oakland, and Ernest
Paul Tressler, of Mt. Lake Park.
The case subsequently was re-
moved to Allegany county when
the plaintiff suggested that she
could not get fair trial in Gar
rett county.
The plaintiff alleged that Hoye's
truck, being driven by Tressler,
made an abrupt right turn onto
Carey street, causing the accident.
Tressler contended in court that he
blinked his turning light for a full
square before making the turn.
He was driving an empty truck.
Only four witnesses testified.
Besides Tressler and Hoye they
were John Pellegrini, driver of the
plaintiffs oil tank truck, and
Nicholas Marine, general manager
of the firm and brother of the
owner.
