HEPPNER PH. 676-9212 Abrams Impressed With Supreme Court Acting on Cases Attorney Robert Abrams re turned to Heppner last Thurs day after a fast trip to Wash ington, D. C, where he and Alex L. Parks of a Portland law firm appeared before the U. S. Supreme Court on be half of a client. After having an opportuni ty that relatively few attor neys in the country receive that of appearing before the highest court in the land Abrams said that he was very much impressed by the trib unal. ' The attorneys were permit ted only a half-hour to pres ent their arguments on behalf of their client, R. B. (Buster) Rand of Boardman, defendant in a condemnation suit in which the U. S. government is plaintiff. The time allowed also includes that for justices of the court to ask questions about the case, and several questions were asked. Abrams said that he was impressed with some of the justices' ap parent quick comprehension of the facts relative to the is sue. When the half hour is fin ished a red light goes on, and consideration must cease. The plaintiff is also given a half- hour. However, both sides are supported by printed briefs that must be submitted to the court. Attorney Abrams said that he was as much engrossed in listening to other cases as he was interested in the case that brought him there. He admit ted to being somewhat ner vous when their turn came. The case was heard in early afternoon Wednesday. Parks and Abrams boarded a plane later that afternoon and, with the three hours gained on time changes, were in Portland abou 8:30 Pacif ic Daylight Saving Time. Upon arrival, though, he learned that his luggage had gone on to San Francicso, and he remained in Portland over night to await its return. The case presented to the Supreme Court involves lands taken from Rand on the Col umbia riverfront in connection with the John Day dam proj ect. The attorneys appealed a decision of the U. S. District Court, won in the U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Fran cisco where the district court was reversed, but the U. S. Government appealed to the Supreme Court, which, rather surprisingly, took jurisdiction.
