This measure, introduced last week by Assemblyman Ricca, is dedigned to relieve the Municipal District Courts of all jury causes by establishing in each of the two boroughs a jury divi- sion to which Municipal Justices, when not otherwise engaged, shall be designated by the Board of Justices to try jury cases, thus keeping that court in session throughout each entire month. Mr, Applebaum, who served as vol- untary counsel to the Mayor's Com- mittee on Rent Profiteering, said to- ion in the municipal courts has worked great injustice, es- pecially to litigants. Each district has ses, its own calendar and a ain days for the trial of jury few ce cases, These cases are so numerous that the courts are hopeless of dis- posing of (hem under the present system “Many a poor man has lost days and days of wages waiting for his case to be called, and then has had | to come back several days each month | for many months before it could be | reached for trial.
