TEXT OF THE OPINION Perry Carson has been restored to Ib- erty and that, too, without paying the fine imposed by Justice of the Peace Sam- uel R. Church or serving the sentence in Jail previded 1m case of default of pay- ment. It will be remembered that Carson was adjudged guilty several weeks ago of contempt by Justice Church for interfering with @ ccrstable who attempted to selze, on an execution issued by the justice, a horse and cart belonging to Hiram Walker. A fine of % or five days in jail was im- posed. Perry declined to pay the fine and was escorted to jail Saturday afternoon, February 5. The following Monday morn- ing he filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus and pending a hearing and deter- mination of the question whether or not he was properly confined Carson was re- leased by Judge Cole on personal recog- nizance. In delivering his opinion tcday Judge Cole held that justices of the peace in the District of Columbia are without author- ity to punish for contempt committed out- side the presence of the justice: that the record of the proceedings in the case at issue do not show that Carson was ad- judged guilty of contempt, and that the commitment on which he was confined in jail was faulty. The court took occasion to remark that interference with a constabie who is attempting to execute an order of @ justice of the peace constitutes a misde- meanor, and the offending party is liable to indictment. Counsel for Justice Church were not in a position today to say whether the justice would carry the matter to the Court of Appeals. ‘The understanding is that Carson contem- plaies instituting suit at law to recover damages for false arrest. He was plainly pleased with the ruling of Judge Cole end departed from the court room with a broad smile visible on his counterance. Perry Was congratulated on all sides, as were his counsel, Messrs. Tracy L. Jeffords and Perri W. Frisby. In the opinion of members of the bar, the case was one of unusual importance, as the question of the authority of justices of the peace to punish for contempt in the Dis- trict has always been in doubt. The pro- ceedings have been followed carefully, and many prominent attorneys were In court to hear the opiuion delivered. It was, in full, zs follows: The.Opinion. In delivering his opinion Judge Cole said: “In the matter of the petition of Perry H. Carsou for a writ of habeas corpus and discharge from imprisonment th2reon, I have to say that the petition and return involve the question of the power of a jus- tice of the peace in this District to punish for contempt. Section 725 of the Statutes at Larg> relates to the powers of the courts of the United States to punish for contempt, and that, as is well known, con- fires the power of those courts to punish- ment for contempt for any act committed in the presence of the court, or so near ther2to as to impede the due administra- tion of justice, and to disobedience ¢f, or resistance tu, any proper order, process, decree or mandate of the court. “It was not claimed by counse! who rep- resented the government. that that section ot the statute would apply to a justice of the peace in the District of Columbia, and clearly it would not under the decision ot the Court of Appeals in the case of the United States vs. Mills. Th> Court of Ap- als in that case held that the words ‘courts of the United States,’ as used ir general statutes or general acis of gress, referr>d to courts of the United States of general jurisdiction and 1.0t to special tribunals. it was determined in that case that those words did not include the Police Court of this District, although that is a court of the United States, creat- 2d by an act of Congress. And also in an earlier case it was determined that a jus- tice of the peace court is a couct of the United States in that limited sense—that ts, it is a court that is created by an act cf Ccngress. So w: are left to determine the pewers of justices of the peace in the Dis- trict of Columbia, co far as the power to punish for contempt is concerned, to the statutes, if there be any upon that sub- ject, specially in forc> in the District of Columbia. “Counsel were unable to refer to any Maryland act upon the subject, and the court knows of none that refers to that question one way or the other, either con- ferrinz or limiting the power to punish for contempt. So far as the court is informed, the only statute that we have upon the sub- ject in the District of Columbia 1s section 1005 of the Revised Statutes of the United States relating to the District of Columbia, and that, In very brief language, simply says that a justice of the peace in the Dis- trict of Columbia has power to compel the attendance of witnesses by attachment, and to punish them for contempt by a fine not exceeding $10 or imprisonment not ex- ceeeding ten days for refusing to obey & summons to appear as a witness. It is con- fined to that; it is silent upon any other sort of process except that of a summons. It is silent as to the power of the justice of the peace to punish for contempt committed in his presence, and therefore compelled to resort to the powers of the justice of the peace under the common law to punish for contempt. “The English rule upon that subject is and was from the earlies: timc that a justice of the peace had jurisdiction to punish for contempt where the contempt was com- mitted in ‘his presence, or so near the place where he was engaged in judicial business as to substantially interfere with the due administration of justice. But under the English common law a justice of the peace had no power to punish for contempt of his process, or any contempt of any kind or character that was not actually committed in his presence. And In this country, so far as the -ourts have spoken, the same rule prevails—that a justice of the peace has jurisdiction to punish for contempt where the contempt shall have been com- mitted in his presence. But he has no other jurisdiction to punish for contempt, unless such jurisdiction is expressly con- ferred by statute. Contempt in Court. “There may be some states which have statutes conferring a broader jurisdiction; there are none of the states, so far as I have observed, that have statutes taking away the common law power or jurisdiction to punish for contempt committed in the presence of the justice of the peace. There are a few cases in some of the states where the courts have decided that at common law the justice of the peace has no power even to punish for contempt committed in his presence. But certainly they are at variance with the English authorities on that point and at variance with the recent dec'sions in this country. “There were some cases cited by council who appeared or behalf of the governmen: in reply to this writ of habeas corpus which counsel claimed held that at common flaw in the states where those cases were de- etded justice of the peace had jurisdic- not only to punish for con- tempt committed in his presence, but also for contempt of his pro- cess, contempt gererally, and had the same @eneral jurisdiction in way, the particular oh that "class of cases Wes Bots. contemme ccmmitted out of the of the court; but —_— im the tes the court or so near Place where Justice cf the holding his court as to interfere rant, or any ruie or order of any court sf the Untted States, or other tegal or ju- dicial writ or process, be gullty_of a misdemeanor and shall be punished after indictment by fine or imprisonment. If that section stopped with the words ‘courts of the United States,’ the section would fait within the rele announced by the Court of Appeals and referred to by me at the out- set; but when you add these words, ‘any other legal writ or process,’ it is made broad enough to cover any order or process issued by any judicial officer of the United States. ~ The Warrant. “Now, that being the law, we come to the particular record that we have here, to see whether the warrant of commitment shows that the justice had jurisdiction to commit for contempt. The language of the warrant is in these words: . “The President of the United States to John R. Leonard, warden of the District Jeil, graeting: “You are hereby commanded to reeetve into your jail and custody Perry and him safely keep for the full period of five di from the date hereof, :nless soansr discharged by due course of law. “ "Witness my hand and seal, this fifth day of January, A. D. 1806.’ “That warrant does cot show why the petitioner was imprisoned, and, of course, fails to show upon the face of St that the Justice of the peace had jurisdiction. If there were nothing but that, if tha original Petition and the return showing the au- thority upon which the warrant claimed to hold the petitioner were the only things here, ther? would be no question in the world that that warrant on its face show- ed_no authority, because it fails to show that the Justice of the peace had jur- isdiction. “It does not show .that the Petitioner was bing imprisoned for con- tempt; muck less does ft ghow that the contempt was committed in the_pres- ence of the justice of the peace. But we have before us the record of the justice of th2 peace in pursuance of which he issued | this warrant. That is browght in by the amended petition, and it is proper that the court shouid look at that. Out of Presence. “But when we come to the further ques- tion of the power of a justice of the peace to punish for contempt committed out of his presence, starting with the settled doc- trine that that power does not exist at common law, in order to have him exer- cise that power it should be conferred by statute. But the statute that confers upon him the power to punish for contempt of his process is confined to one particular process, the summons for a witness; and the familiar doctrine that the inclusion of one thing in a statute is the exclusion of all others will apply there, I think, and that under the statute he could not have any grcater power than that conferred by the express language of the statute. “It is also to be borne in mind that the same legislature which passed the act or section 1005 at the same time passed sec- tion 725 of the Revised Statutes of the United States, which section confers upon courts of the United States having general jurisdiction the power to punish for con- tempt of any process. When the legisla- ture passed this particular act relating to the District of Columbia it confined it to a particular process, showing, { think, ‘be- yond any question the intention of the leg- islature not to confer upon justices of the Peace any greater power than that spect- fled in section 1005. And there may be a reason for It. “It was argued by counsel who repre- sented the government that unless a jus- tice of the peace had power to punish for a disobedience of his process, for contempt, he could not enforce his judgments. “But that does not help the matter out at all; on the contrary, it seems to indicate, so far as it indicates anything, that the justice of the peace was proceeding to pun- ish for a supposed contempt committed by the petitioner in resisting the execution of a writ of fieri facias issued py a justice of the peace. It goes on to recite the affidavit of somebody that such an obstruction was made, and then issued a rule pon ihé pe- titioner to shew cause why he should ‘not be punished for contempt. When you come to the judgment, there is no judgment ‘con- victing the party of contempt at all; the judgment of the justice of the peace is that the person shall be fined $5 or be im- prisoned for five days. When we have the judgment before us, it does not show that the person. was committed for contempt; except by inference; and if, py inference: you assume that he was committed for contempt, it was a contempt committed out of the presence of the justice of the peace, in an effort to prevent the execution of a process of which the justice had juris- diction. i “It being an inferior tribunal, there must be recited in the commitment itself every fact that is necessary to give the court jurisdiction. In other ,words, !n order to have this commitment valid, a process by which the petitioner could be held, it should be recited that the petitioner did something and that something should be briefly stat- ed, in the presence of the court, so that any other court looking at it could see that it was a contempt. “It should recite that he did so and so in the presence of the justice of the peace; he should be called upon to show why he should not be punished for such contempt: that he failed to give any excuse, and thereupon the justice adjudged him guilty of contempt and decided that he should be fired so much or imprisoned so long. All that shouid be recited in the commitment. And a commitment that does not recite 80 much, to show that the justice had juris- diction, when brought before any court upcn a writ of habeas corpus, the party would be entitled to a discharge because the commitment falled to show that the Special tribunal committing him had the Jurisdiction to commit. “The result in this case Is, of course, — re oreneeeae improperly held and ent to his discharge. An order wil be made accordingly.” : NEW POST OFFICE CLOCK The Preliminaries Begun Tcday on the Work of Installation. Brief Description of the New Time- plece—Face Will Be 11 ea Mght.
