To Retain Petit Jury for Trials Until July to Clean Up the Docket In order to eénd the confusion of the circuit court affairs caused by the resignation of Judge Claire C. Edwards ‘and the overâ€"crowding of the docket, the petit jury will be reâ€" tained for trial work until July 1 this year, according to a decision of announced. to Judge Edward Shurtâ€" leff last week. Thursday, April 24, 1930 The bar decided further that it was their wish that Judge Shurtleff preside on the bench here until Judse Edward‘s vacancy is filled. The program of the bar, following substantially the suggestions offered by Shurtleff in an address to the attorneys recently, was prepared by a special committee of lawyers apâ€" pointed by the judge for that special purpose. _ The committee, comprised of .

When to Be Backâ€"Seat Driver, and When Not "To be or not to be a backâ€"seat driver" is a question that has been disposed of & number of times by courts throughout the country, points out the legal department of the Chiâ€" cago Motor club. Under certain conâ€" ditions, backâ€"seat driving is virtually obligatory, according to the concenâ€" sus on that subject. One of the simplest and most recent opinions handed down on that quesâ€" tion is that of the Missouri Court of Appeals. That high court declared: "It is impossible for courts to lay down fixed rules by which to deterâ€" mine just when and under what cirâ€" eumstances an automobile should be driven from the rear seat. Each case should rest upon its own facts. The courts all agree, however, that a pasâ€" senger or guest in an automobile must use ordinary care for his own safety, and, when the exercise of such care requires that he call the attention of the driver to approachâ€" ing danger, he must do it, or be open to the charge of contw’butory negliâ€" gence."
