A Fayetteville justice of the peace
named as defendant in * a civil
suit, also a Fayetteville concern
not previously named in the case,
have both filed demurrers and
motions to dismiss in one of the
most unusual actions ever insti
tuted at Carthage.
In the $10,000 damage suit re
cently filed in Moore County Su
perior Court, a Pinehurst woman,
Mrs, Marjorie P. Gilbert, as plain
tiff, accuses Neal W. Reichle as
agent of Fleishman’s Big Store,
and Roy C. Warren, individual,
both of Fayetteville, of using a
criminal process to enforce a civ
il obligation, namely, to collect
a debt.
She alleges that Reichle had a
warrant issued by Warren, a jus
tice of the peace, as agent, caus
ing her arrest for worthless
check, which she denies was
worthless at the time the warrant
was issued and served; and that
'nstructions from Warren to the
Sheriff of Moore County, which
were followed by his deputy, J.
A. Lawrence, were to arrest and
“hold her in custody” until the
$15 check and costs were paid.
The plaintiff states that she was
arrested at her place of employ-
nent, suffering great humilia
tion and embarrassment and held

Eddie, who accompanied Mrs.
Se^’eral jail and road sentences
were meted out for traffic and
'.Iher offen.':e3 in, last Wednes
day’s session of Southern Pines
Recorder’s court and some of the
judgments were appealed to Su
perior Court.
Judge W. Harry Fullenwider

in custody until she could get up
the money, in abrogation of her
rights.
She alleges her belief that this
was done to embarrass and hu
miliate her and coerce her into
payment of an indebtedness,
while the “ulterior motive” was
collection of a bill for goods
bought at Fleishman’s Big Store,
a civil matter.
While the check had been re
turned marked “insufficient
funds,” plaintiff denies it was
a bad check and alleges that it
would have been paid had it been
presented to the Carolina Bank at
Pinehurst, on which it was drawn.
She states that she has had an
account at Fleishman’s Big
Store for 14 years and has bought
merchandise there totalling some
$2,000, paying most of the bills
by check.
Defendant Warren, demurring
and moving to dismiss, claims
that no cause of action against
him has been stated and that in
drawing the warrant for Reichle
he was acting in his official ca
pacity as justice of the peace and
is not liable to civil suit for er
rors he might have committed,
though he denies there were any
such errors.
The Morris Co., Inc , of Fay
etteville, stating it is the owner
of Fleishman’s Big Store, also de
murred and moved to dismiss, on
the grounds that the court in this
action had not properly acquired
iurisdiction, that Fleishman’s Big
Store is no legal entity under
that name, that the complaint
does not state facts sufficient to
constiute a cause of acion nor
any to show any connecting rela
tionship or agency between or
among the parties named.
W. Lamont Brown of Southern
Pines is attorney for Mrs. Gilbert,
who is the wife of James P. Gil
bert, representative of a lawbook
firm. The Fayetteville firm of

THE STORY OF MR. LIVINGWELL
AND HOW IT CAN HELP YOU
PROTECT YOUR OWN GOOO LIFE
A
This is Mr. Livingwell, an extraordinary
man. Prosperous, wise, handsome. Sports
man, traveler, patron of the arts. Yoik sort.
Stories of the awesome damages awarded
in liability suits have sorely troubled
Mr. Livingwell.
Suppose an accident occurred to provide
grounds for a claim against him. Couldn’t
he be wiped out? He could—even though
he carries normal liability insurance.
This is why INA, Insurance Company of
North America, has developed two protec
tion plans for the Livingwells of this world.
The.lNA-Executive and INA-Professional
Policies provide coverage that starts where
other liability policies stop.
Doctors, lawyers, merchants (even a
chief or two) were amazed when told how
little these policies cost.
Why not permit us to amaze you? A telephone call
or a visit to our office will give you the full story.
