Jasper County Democrat, Volume 17, Number 14, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 23 May 1914 — To Ask for a Rehearing in Marble Ditch Case. [ARTICLE]

To Ask for a Rehearing in Marble Ditch Case.

William E. Pinny, of this city, one of the appellants In the Marble ditch, has received a certified copy of the opinion of the supreme court on April 9th affirming the Jasper circuit court establishing the ditch An examination of the opinion of the court plainly shows that the court was not fully advised of the questions before it for decision and gave its opinion without deciding the vital questions Involved In the appeal. The appellants will file a petition for a rehearing and expect to have the case set down for oral argument in order to fully present the questions involved in the appeal. I nder the rules of the supreme court, the appellants have sixty days within which to file this petition and their brief. From this it appears that the establishment of the Marble ditch is yet very uncertain and may be in court for years.—Valparaiso Messenger.
