Nov 17 A case of Importance came up this morning In the District Court, Involving a quirk in the construction of the law. Aug 24 Milford L. Parent of 60 Sylvester st, Brookline, was arrested in this city, charged with driving an auto while intoxicated. He was found guilty and fined. An appeal was taken to the Essex County Superior Court.

When the case came up on appeal It was thrown out on a technicality that the words "on a way were omitted in the charge. Thereupon City Marshal Whldden brought another case in the District Court covering the matter, inserting the wanted words. C. B. Terry, counsel for Parent, quoted a statute of 1922 that the case could not legally be brought up again here.

City Solicitor Cunningham contended it was practically a new case. Judge Sumner D. York said that for several reasons the failure to cross a or dot an 1, which might be done by the most competent clerk, was sufficient in some case to nullify an Indictment. According to the amended statute of 3922 covering the case, adopted for some reason which Judge York said was not quite apparent to him, a case once tried upon its merits in a District Court was barred from being tpgaw tried in these courts of first origin. However, in his opinion this did not defeat utic.

He believed that the case, not having been heard upon its merits In the Superior Court, should be tried there and that if the prosecuting officers were su minded an indictment should be issued by the district attorney In the indictment and the case brought to trial. Judge York ordered the case dismissed, adding that If he was considered wrong in his opinion the higher court could so adjudge. It Is the Intention of the officials here to apply to the district attorneys office for an Indictment.
