41. Of Federal Courts

522.Miss.1b. U.S. v. Barnett. (U.S.S.C., #107) (316 F.2d 236) Facts: VIII DOCKET 47 at 522.Miss.1, IX DOCKET 24 at .Miss.1a. Apr. 6, 1964: U.S.S.C. (5-4) answered CA 5 query: Def. not entitled to jury trial, Clark, J.: "It has always been the law of the land, both state and federal, that the courts—except where specifically precluded by statute—have the power to proceed summarily in contempt matters." But see note 12: "Some members of the Ct. are of the view that, without regard to the seriousness of the offense, punishment by summary trial without a jury would be constitutionally limited to that penalty provided for petty offenses." Goldberg, J. (Warren, C.J., Douglas, J) diss.: Def. had statutory right to jury trial under 18 U.S.C. §3691 because DC was source of order, violation was criminal offense under 18 U.S.C. §1509, suit brought by Meredith, not U.S.; also had constitutional right, Art. III, §2, Sixth Amendment. Black, J. (Douglas, J.) diss.: "As I said in Green [365 U.S. 165, 193], I think that this doctrine that a judge has "inherent" power to make himself prosecutor, judge and jury seriously encroaches upon the constitutional right to trial by jury and should be repudiated."

Issues: (1) Def.'s publication did not interfere with pending trial; (2) Can Dist. Ct., by retaining jurisdiction of case until probation period is up for review of sentence, prohibit comment on its actions during probation period?

W. B. Kelly, Esq., Gilbert, White & Gilbert, P. O. Box 787, Santa Fe, N.M.

42.19. Ungar v. Sarafite. (U.S.S.C., #167) (189 NE.2d 629, 190 NE.2d 539) During retrial of Hulan Jack for conspiracy to violate NY's conflict of interest laws, Def.-atty. was hostile prosecution witness who asked for recess due to his mental state, made comments judge found contemptuous in hearing after trial. NY cts. affirmed denial of motion for trial before another judge. Mar. 30, 1964: U.S.S.C. affirmed (6-3), White, J. Harlan, J., conc. Douglas, J. (Black, Goldberg, JJ.) diss.: "An impartial judge, not caught up in the cross-currents of emotions enveloping the contempt charge, is the only one who can protect all rights and determine whether a contempt was committed or whether the case is either one of judicial nerves on edge or judicial tyranny."

Jan. 8, 1964: Tenn. Sup. Ct. affirmed: (1) possibility that restaurant could not lawfully exclude Defs. irrelevant, because Defs.' conduct clearly prohibited by statutes; (2) indictment sufficiently apprised Defs. of offenses charged; (3) conspiracy may be inferred from nature of acts, relation of Defs., and their common interest; (4) Peterson, 552.SC.8, 373 U.S. 244, and Lombard, 552.La.2, 373 U.S. 267, distinguishable because no blocking of entryways; (5) statutes sufficiently define proscribed conduct; (6) Defs. not prejudiced in jury selection, in drawing of grand and petit jury panels, in inclusion of whites who professed belief in segregation but alleged they could lay such belief aside, or in allowing challenges to Negroes on panel for various reasons.

July 1964: Ct. of App. reversed conviction of Def.-Allen for assault with intent to commit murder: reversible error to deny without hearing Def.'s motion to quash indictment and challenge to array of petit jurors: (1) systematic exclusion of Negroes from grand and petit juries violates due process and equal protection clauses of Fourteenth Amendment; (2) such exclusion may be raised by white-Def., not a member of the excluded class, under Thiel v. Southern Pacific, 328 U.S. 217, held applicable to Georgia state grand and petit juries; (3) but, "were it necessary for the Def. to show prejudice, judicial notice might be taken that where prejudice exists against the advocacy of the Negro's full privileges and duties of citizenship, a white person active in promoting participation in government by Negroes would be the object of as strong adverse prejudice as would a Negro engaged in such activities, and perhaps stronger"; (4) Ga.

C. §1501) permitting owners of places of public accommodation to exclude those whose presence would offend other customers is constitutional to extent it allows discrimination against Negroes; (3) owner's right to exclude is not state action solely because his premises are licensed; (4) but state may not, by prosecution for trespass, encourage or assist in private discrimination, citing Shelley v. Kraemer, 334 U.S. 1; (5) this ruling may prompt owners to use violent self-help, but state may not act unconstitutionally just to prevent threat of violence.

Issues: (1) Is World's Fair public property because of extensive subsidy by NY state and local govts., because of NY statute (Laws of N.Y., 1963, c. 892(3)) making acts committed on Fair grounds cognizable under state penal statutes, and under Marsh v.
