4 - Port Ol'ord News, Thursday, December 5, 1968 Supreme Court Denies Motion In Timeus Cose A motion for a new tria l by H.E. Timeus In his suit against Fell Campbell was denied by the Oregon supreme court Oct. 15. Timeus said he was denied a fa ir tria l because his attorney, John J. Pickett, “ was under the influence of some intoxicating liq u o r , or some stimulant or sedative, the exact identity of which is unknown to m e." T im e u s also said in the mo tion that he had filed a complaint with the Oregon state bar but the bar “ exonerated Mr. Pickett of professional misconduct." But he didn’t believe the bar made a sufficient Investigation. Timeus also chronicled his troubles in finding a lawyer to represent him for this appeal listing six lawyers in C urry, Coos, Lane and Marlon counties who turned him down before he found a S p r i n g f i e l d firm to handle his case and listed this as why he was late in filin g for a new tria l. Timeus also presented nine a f f id a v i t s in support of his charge. The affidavit signed by H. E. Timeus says, “ That in my opin ion and from my observations at the tria l John Pickett, at - torney for Timeus, was under the Influence of alcohol to such an e x te n t that he could not p r o p e r ly try or present the case.” The other affidavits all lis t the identical charge, "That in my opinion and from my obser vations at the tria l, John J. Pickett, attorney for Timeus, appeared to be under the in fluence of some stimulant or sedative, or the after effects of same, to such an extent that he could not and did not proper ly try or present the case.” Those affidavits were signed by: Dorothy D. Timeus, T e r rance James Timeus, Mary Ann Timeus, Fred P. Smith, Thomas B. Ayres, Harvey Crook, Oliver W. Bettis and George C.
