CITY SOLICITOR


City Solicitor's Report


December 30, 1933.


City Council,


City of Newburyport.


Gentlemen:


In compliance with the provisions of the ordinance defining the duties of the City Solicitor, I submit herewith my second annual report, covering the cases which have come under my charge during the year 1933.


At the beginning of the year five cases against the City were pending in the courts. These were the cases of:


1 Simon Sandler, Assignee.


An action of contract brought in the District Court of Newburyport April 12, 1930, to recover for material and supplies alleged to have been furnished to the City by the Edward Perkins Lumber Company. This case was settled by payment to the plaintiff of the amount found to be due from the City.


2. Virginia Garand


An action of tort brought in the Superior Court, May 28, 1932 to recover for personal injuries alleged to have been received as a result of a defective sidewalk. This case was settled during the year.


3. Carolyn Francois


This was an action of tort brought in the District Court of Newburyport to recover for personal injuries resulting from a defective condition of a sidewalk. Trial resulted in a finding for the plaintiff.


4. Isaac U. Wood


This. action of tort was brought in the District Court of Newburyport dated June 26, 1932, to recover for damage to an automobile of the plaintiff as result of alleged negligence of a driver of a city truck. This claim is still pending.


5. T. Francis Kelleher


This action of contract brought in the Superior Court by a former City Solicitor by writ dated November 4, 1932, to recover for services alleged to have been performed in connection with the revision and re-codification of City Ordinances, was tried at the May Term in Newburyport before Judge Gray and resulted in a decision in favor of the City.


The following cases have been brought since the first of the year:


1. City of Newburyport vs. Constantine Conion and certain insurance com- panies, trustees.


An action of contract to recover a sum of money due the city. The case was subsequently settled, the City receiving the full amount of its claim.


2. Charles E. Houghton, Treasurer and Collector vs. Ellen E. Doyle and the Federal National Bank.


98


ANNUAL REPORT


This is an action to recover the amount of a check drawn on the Federal National Bank in payment of a tax bill due the City. The claim is held in abey- anee pending liquidation of the bank.


3. Margaret Spaulding vs. City


An action of tort for injuries alleged to have been received by reason of a defective condition in a sidewalk. It was settled by agreement.


4. City vs. Stanislaw Danielecki.


In an action of tort, the City seeks to recover for damage to certain of its property alleged to have been caused by the defendant. This matter is still pending.


5. Margaret E. Davis vs. City.


This action to recover for personal injuries was settled by agreement.


6. Jeremiah F. Lynch vs. City.


An action of contract brought in the District Court of Newburyport to re- cover for part of the plaintiff's salary alleged to have been illegally withheld from him. This ease has been settled.


With the consent of the council a few claims were settled with the parties without litigation.


The following paragraphs constitute a brief review of other services I have rendered to the city during the year 1933.


As counsel for the committee appointed by the mayor to investigate the Public Welfare Board, I assisted in the examination of records and in preparing the reports which were submitted to the mayor and council. I drafted the ordi- nance which abolished the Board and established the office of Relief Commission- er. Subsequently it became my task to attend to the legal proceedings conse- quent upon the elimination of the office of clerk of that department.


When the Depositors Realty Corporation, the owners of the W. D. Hannah Property, took their claim for a tax abatement to the Board of Tax Appeals, I appeared on behalf of our Board of Assessors. The assessors were successful in these proceedings and the appeal was dismissed.


On several occasions I have prosecuted cases for the police department in the District Court. These cases included a number of liquor law violations, false fire alarm offenses and one for the publishing of obscene literature.


Whenever at any of the hearings which have been held before boards or commissions at the State House the presence of counsel for the city has been required, I have appeared in the interests of Newburyport.


In numerous instances I have prepared contracts and other legal papers for the several city departments. Frequently I have been called upon to advise municipal department heads, and many times during the year I have prepared written opinions for city officials.


Respectfully submitted,


MALCOLM G. AYERS, City Solicitor.
