Motorist Granted
Chance otLighter
Assault Sentence

A motorist charged with
assault after honking his horn
at another driver today won a
chance for a lighter sentence.
Edward H. Hensley of the
900 block of Eleventh street
NV, was convicted after q
traffic dispute last spring.
Judge Edward A. Beard, in
sentencing Hensley. who is no
stranger in court, told him:
II am afraid the string for
you has run out. In this case
you are going to have to serve
one years straight time and
you are going to have to pay a
fine of $500 or serve another
year."
The penalty was the maxi
mum authorized by law.
In reversing the lower court
decision, the Municipal Court
of Appeals said there was no
merit in Mr.. Hensley's request
for reversal of his conviction.
1t must stand.
However, the court said
Judge Beard erred when he
didn't give the motorist an
opportunity to make a State
ment in his own behalf and
to present any information as
mitigation of punishment.
This situation must be cor
rected by remanding the case
for re-sentencing," the upper
court decided.
