|BroWneII Backs
FanniIyCourt

Attorney General Brovnell
yesterday gave a shove - two
weeks before Congress returns -
to the bill to- establish a do
nestle relations branch in Mu-
Inicipal Court here.
Mr.. Brownell wrote House
Speaker Rayburn and Minority
Leader Martin that the matter
ought to get "as prompt atten-
ton as possible" The bill was
passed by the Senate last May 81,
and on July S. it was approved.
with some changes, by the House
District Committee. 1t was held
up. however. in the last-minute
Ilogjam of legislation in late July,
shortly before Congress ad-
|journed its first session.
Backs House Version
The Attorney General said that
"the bill. as reported by the
House Committee of the District
of Columbia, should be adopted
by the House of Representatives,.
In event of its passage. I am sure
that In conference between the
committees Of the House and
Senate. an agreement may be
reached"
The bill would create a sep
arate branch of the Municipal
Court and provide for three new
Municipal Court judges with ex-
elusive Jurisdiction over domestic
relations cases.
Mr.. Brownell, in his letters to
the two legislative leaders. said
that the plan would speed dis
position Of such, litigation as
maintenance, support and GUS
tody cases. He noted that the
Municipal Court load has re-
manned current for the past two
years and said that 1t had dem
onstrated its capacity to as
sumo additional Jurisdiction over
local matters"
District Court Jam
The situation in the U. S. Dis
trict Court for the District Of
Columbia, is much different. he
said. He pointed to delay Of
about two years in disposition Of
civil cases. although the courts
criminal calendar is current.
The Attorney General wrote
that it is the position Of the
Eisenhower administration that,
ii the bill is enacted. delays in
the District Court will be short
'ened.
There also will be accom-
plished," he said. "a decided i'm
provement in the handling Of
domestic relations cases."
