‘PENALTY FOR JURY' VERDICT TO BE FOUGHT New Trial Sought by Man Given Extra Year for Not Guilty Plea. Motion for anew trial will be filed in the criminal court case of John Perkins of Carmel, who was given an extra year by Judge Frank P Baker Tuesday for failure to plead guilty. This intention was announced today by Ira Holmes, defense attorney, after Judge Baker sentenced Perkins to serve eleven years in the Indiana state reformatory after he had resorted to a jury which found him guilty, May 21. The minimum determinate sentence in the case would have been ton years. Judge Baker added the extra year because, as he announced, “This court gives consideration to defendants who plead guilty, but will not be easy on those who take the court's times by asking for juries." Holmes stated he would ask for anew trial on the basis that: “If the jury is judge of the law in the case, it also has the right to fix the penalty in determinate sentences." “Every man is entitled to a fair and impartial trial under the Constitution," Holmes further stated, “and I am going to appeal this case to the supreme court, if necessary.” Perkins was charged with robbing James J. Coyne of 1421 Finley avenue, after kidnaping his victim. Maurice Pavton. who confessed a part in the robbery, was sentenced, to serve ten years.
