Argument on a motion for certifi
cate of probable oauw in the appeals
cfL, A, Bantu, local agitator, serving
life In etate prison for murder, fill
be heard Thursday before the state
supreme court at Salem.
The certificate, if granted, will give
Banks attorney right to proceed with
their appeal to the supreme court: If
denied, It means they have come to
the end of thetr legal recourse, ard
that the appeal will not be filed.
Banks will be represented by At
torney Charles E. Hardy of Eugene
and Attorney Fran J. Lonergan of
Portland. The state will be repre
sented by Assistant Attorney -General
Relph E. Moody.
The probable certificate Is based
upon the following contentions:
That Banks did not have a fnlr
trial;
That the court erred In Its In
structions to the Jury;
That a. woman bailiff, In charge of
the women members of the Jury, was
guilty of alleged misconduct;
That the assistant attorney-general,
In the closing arguments to the Jury,
was guilty of improper conduct In
referring to Banks as "a moral cow
ard hiding behind the skirts of hl
wife-:
And, upon technicalities of law.
By a decision of Judge George F.
6k ip worth of Eugene last week, the
arguments on the writ of probable
cause were referred to the supreme
court for decision.
Attorneys say that a writ of prob
able cause is generally granted, as a
matter of legal courtesy.
