SUPERIOR COURT |
UPHOLDS NEW ACT
Appeals From Public Service
Commission Will Go Direct
• to the Appellate Court
By Associated Press
Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 20. The
State Superior Court to-day held that j
it could hear appeals from decisions;
of the Public Service Commission!
without the cases first being heard by j
the Common Pleas Court. Such ap-1
peals have been heard In the Dauphin j
county court. The decision was hand- j
ed down in the cases of the West Vir- 1
ginia Pulp and Paper Company, the|
New York and Pennsylvania Com-1
York Haven Company, appellants, vs.
York Haven Company, appelants, vs. |
the Public Service Commission, ap-1
pellee, and the Huntingdon and Broad I
Top Railroad and the Pennsylvania j
Company, Philadelphia, Baltimore j
and Washington Railroad Company, I
and the West Jersey and Sea Shore 1
Railroad Company as interveners, j
The case Involved an increase In J
freight rates. The railroad com-1
panies contended that the act amend-!
iug the Public Service law which per- j
mits appeals direct to the Superior!
Court instead of to the county court!
was unconstitutional.
The Superior Court will hear thci
cases on appeal next Spring. When i
the court adjourns Its present sitting j
it will not meet again for the hearing I
of cases until February 29 at Wil
liamsport.
The effect of the decision is to up
hold the act of 1915 which was pass
ed for the purpose of getting appeals
direct into the superior court with
out l lie Dauphin county court having
anything to do with them. Over a
dozen appeals have been pending!
until the West Virginia company case
could be decided.
