Mrs. Cooke (Continued from Page 1) from the sale?after the city and county subtracted their taxes have been on file in the office of the Carteret Superior Court clerk. Mrs. Cooke refuses to accept her share. When Judge John Burney ordered the money distributed last June she sought to appeal. But (he did not perfect the appeal, the Su preme Court noted. Then, last March, Judge Henry Stevens exceeded his authority in allowing Mrs. Cooke extra time to hire counsel and perfect her ap peal. In June Judge Stevens found that Mrs. Cooke had failed to pro duce bond, hire a lawyer or file her case on appeal. He ordered the appeal dismissed and directed that the distribution of the fund begin immediately. Mrs. Cooke Appeals It was from this final order of Judge Stevens that Mrs. Cooke ap pealed to the State's highest court. She became a familiar figure in the court clerk's office and upstairs where the justices do their work. Studying, conferring, writing, she filed her appeal. But the court observed last week that there were fatal defects in her appeal. She had ignored the court's contained no record of the prior rules almost entirely. The appeal proceedings, no summons, no pleadings, judgments and order*. There was no appeal bond and no alternate provision for a pauper's appeal. The record waf not printc u, nor were there alternate typed copies for the judges. "In spite of this," said the court, "and disregarding the utter failure to present the record of the case on appeal in compliance with the rules of the court . . . which merits the dismissal of the appeal, the court has carefully reviewed the papers filed and listened patiently to the personal appeals of the de fendant . . . ." But it found no merit in her contentions and ordered the appeal dismissed. Beaten again Mrs. Cooke now reportedly want a new hearing from the court.
