The action Justice Stafford in Criminal Division 2 in discharging panel of 12 jurors serving in that court for fallure to give due consideration to the evidence uced at a trial last Friday of colored woman charged with dope selling, was made the basis today of a petition by Attorney Abner Kiegal for a postponement of two cases of grand larceny against Merle Taylor, echeduled to be tried today. The of- fending jurors had rendered a verdiet | of acquittal after a very brief consid- eration of the case in the jury room. petition charged that dismissal of the jurors had the ef- of intimidating the men remain- on the panel of the court, and sub- ted them to fear that they, too, will summarily and arbitrarily dis- ged unless they returned verdicts ullty. The court granted a continuance of the cases untll March 13, but made no nment on the petition. A new jury w1l be empaneled before that date.
