The court will also rule on a defense request for a court order which would permit Lassegard to take deposition of all witnesses who testified before that grand Jury which consisted of six men and two women and included six Mitchellites, a Mt. Vernon resident, and a Letcher area man. As a climax to the arraign ment, which lasted two and i half hours, Judge Wuest entered an order giving the defense permission to examine at length all documents pertaining to the grand jury hearing. During the arraignment proceedings, there was a general discussion of the possible dropping of some of the charges against Hoven, but the court at that time took no action on this.

Counsel Lassegard took the position that charges set out the indictments were so "lacking in particulars" that they are "unintclligi- ble." Lassegard claimed the indictments returned by the grand jury do "not contain sufficient particulars to enable an adequate preparation by the defense." There are in the indictments, he charged, an inordinate "lack of particulars as to facts." The jury, which was sworn on Dec. 13, heard 39 witnesses and viewed exhibits. The indictments against the County auditor, broke down into five categories, claimed alleged irregularities in the Nov.
