PROFITTAKfNG SUFREMEGQURT OVERWORKED Attorney General Bickett Files Biennial Report and Recom- GENERAL REVIEW Suggests Relief , of Supreme Courntudges- BFedoctron f-CasesfoTeurt-3 y Elimination of Unnecessary Appeals; Suggestion For Ad ditional Salary For Office The Chief Justice and all the Judges of the Supreme Court are overworked, ia the claim made by Attorney-General T. W. Bickett in biennial report of the work of the office. With IhU he proceeds to sug gest a remedy for a relief of the sit uation. More than this the Attorney-Gen eral suggests that Hie duties of an attorney-general's office are such as to require the entire time of an at torney general. There has never been a whole. time attorney-General in this State. At one time, even the attorney-general served without re muneration. Hut it is the recommen d&tlon of Mr. Bickett that the Stale's attorney. general receive a competent salary and be required to serve the State In this capacity during the n time bf his time. He now receives 11.000 vearlv. The report begins with a review of criminal statlatlcs for the two years. "The law requires that every case tried or i any way disposed of In the Superior Courts of the State shall be reported to the Attorney-uenerai. The total number of cases reported during the two years covered by thle report is 22.50. Of these 10,410 are for the year 1S12-1S. and 11.0 for the year 1911-14. The number of caaea reported In my olennal re-port two years ago was ls.S&J. and thg number in my report four years ago waa 2.1.(64. This report shows an in- Crea'Ce"oT' S.sSOrtrver- the r-prt two years ago and 865 over the report four veara auu ... "of the 12,509 cases reported. !,- in actually tried, and in 1 144 caaea H nol pros was entered or the chbo waa disposed or in some wav not Involving trial or sentence In the llr.HS caaea actually tried there were U.45S con victlons. and 2,707 acquittals: It thus appears that not of everr one hundred per sons "brought before thv courts and tried. were convicted and 14 ac- hutftefl.' " " ' ' The trials for homicide shown In this report are 522. In my report two years ago 17 and four years ago 12S. In the Supreme Court the depart, rnrni has -represented the State dur lng the two years covered by thla reoort In 124 criminal cases, ine re port two years ago shows Hi cases and the report four years ago 82 cases. It thus appears that there has been within six years an increase in the criminal caaea coming to me ou nrema Court of about 60 per Cent- After a review then of a number of prominent rases both criminal and civil before the Supreme Court on ap nea! the report goes Into a numtier of recommendations under the title Dei artmental Opinions. There Is nara- ly a day, according to the report mat a numlier of letters trom private ciu sens and from public officials do not come to the department asking Inrnr matlon concerning matters that do not come strlc-tly speaking under the Juris diction of the department. It is tne policy never to give an opinion on a local controversy hut in many canes the letters are written by peopte wno wlh to keep out of litigation and who wish to obey the law provided there is someone to tell them what the law ia Kor this reason the Attorney (len eral thinks that the office of the As- sintant Attorney TJeneral is quite ne ceaxary and entirely Justifiable. Multiplicity of IndU-tnMfit. The recommendations then lake up the Multiplicity of Indictments. Hoth time and money, says the Attorney t'.eneral. "are wasted by Bending a different bill of indictment for such of a series of violations of the fame luw. llelow the wade of felony the solicitor should be allowed and it should be his duty, lo charge any number of violating of the same law In a single bill. Take, for e ample, the crime of selling intoxicat lng llouorH. If all sales, of which there Is any evidence, could bo charg ed In a single bill not only would time and coats he saved, but with the defendant's entire record "with respect to the violation of this particular law before the Jury, the chances of obtain ing a Just verdict would be greatly increased. Trie) Supreme Court Is Overworked. "Hneaklns from mji intimate ac quaintance of nix years with what they the doing. I want to aay with all the emphasis 1 can command that tha Chief Justice and the Associate Jus tires of the Supreme Court are doing entirely too much work. If I may be pardoned for speaking well of the living I will say that North Carolnin is fortunate in having a great Supreme ance m keep it vigorously alive. The best way to lighten the labors of the court would he to have seven Justices and let them sit in divisions as Is dons In many of the States, but this would require a constitutional amendment and recert experience demonstrates that the people do not take kindly to this procesa. 'The work of the court could be materially lessened by providing that In civil actions wherein the amount In controversy does not 'exceed 1500 an appeal may not be taken as a matter Xl-CtllUMiJfewA-LhaiJnrder to bring such a case before the fi'upreme TJourT the complaining party must file a pe tition for a writ of cert cor orl. and in this petition ahow to -the satisfac tion of some Justice of the court that palpable error in law was committed in the trial" below, and that thla error resulted in a Substantial injustice. I am of opinion that a law to., this effect would be no Invasion of the right of the Supreme Court to review any de. risiian of the course below upon any matter of law- or legal inference, nut would simply prescribe the method or obtaining such review. I am. of opinion that this would relieveihe court of one-third of the cases that now comes before It- More Salary. 'Since moving- Into the New Admin istration Building the department finds It la able to do more satisfactory work than heretofore. The quarters are convenient and commodious, the Su preme Court ha ordered a number of new books for the use of tlx1 de partment and every facility Is now af forded for doing work with intelli gence and dispatch. "One change In the office) would; In any opinion, greatly enhance the ef jctency of the department.

The Parker-Hunter the office. This he la no now- able ftn do:--N'o- AUoruey (ieweral-ln- the whole history of the State has evet done so. The law has never conteni plated that he should do so, but on the other band has in a very practical way made It Impossible. "The first Attorney General of the State. Watghtstlll Avery, was elected In 177T to hold office during his good behaviour. It does not appear that a salary was attached to th.: office, but Mr. Avery resigned in two yea re in 178 the salary of the Attorney General was fixed at 40 pounds for each court he should attend. In the revised statutes enacted i. 1817. the salary of the Attorney General was fixed at 100 dollars for each term of court he ahould attend. ti.d the At torney General was by virtue of hta office the solicitor of the Third Circuit, the State being then divided into seven circuits. He was allowed cer tain fees as prosecuting attorney both In the Superior and in the Supreme Court. "Changea have been made from time to time until at present the At torney General la paid a salsry of tt.Ouo a year-. It la absolutely neces sary for htm td do' some outside work In order to supplement this salary, and throughout the entire history of the office the Attorney General has been compelled lo do some legal prac tice outside of the office. "But the work has so Increased In volume and importance i to 'abund antly Justify the State in paying the Attorney General a salary that will enable him to live comfortably and then to require him to jjlve; all hi time to the duties of the office. strongly recommend such legislation, and am free to do this without em barrassment aa no liirrease in the salary can, under the t'onetttutloo. go Into effect during- my term of office."
