TALLAHASSE, Fla., December 24— An opinion that dead men may be sued for tma‘:s in Florida was handed down by the State Supreme Court yes- terday in passiug on a sult growing oat of the bombing of a residence. J. L. Waller sought $50,000 damages from the estate of 'John Hodasz, de- ceased. Waller claimed that Hodasz bombed his residence on April 24, 1930, damaging the to the extent of $3,000 and causing Mrs. Waller to lose one leg, one eye and the use of her right hand and arm. Hodasz died shortly after the bombing, according to the record. which did not ascribe a motive for the deed. In the court’s principal opinion, Asso- clate Justice Fred H. Davis said in pari “What can be more ruinous than to lay down & preeept by which the estate of wealthy criminals who blow up people’s houses shall be held exempt from mak- ing restitution for the wrong in the form of money damages to the injured, merely because an avenging justice may have brought about the death of the malefactor before a civil judgment could be obtained against him while he was living? “‘What can be more ruinous and more L\m]ust than to say to the surviving chil- dren of a deceased malefactor that they shall inherit their father's estate un- diminished by any restitution out of it for the benefit of other children of the malefactor's victim who has been bombed or ‘put on the spot'?” W.

Cissel, representing Day, and State's Attorney Stedman Prescott on | behalf of the State. It was contended by Attorney Cissel that inasmuch as the constitution of | Maryland vests judicial powers only in the Court of Appeals, circult courts, orphans’ courts and justices of the peace, the legislative act complained of was unconstitutional in that it simply appointment of a Park” and did not specify that he first be made a justice of the peace. Judge Peter held in his decision that, “as the constitution does not enumer- ate police justices among the officers in whom judicial power of the State is vested, in’ my opinion that jurisdiction could not be constitutionally conferred upon the officer appointed under the Day's discharge was ordered.
