SHIPP SAYS LIMIT RIGHT OF APPEALS TO GOOD GROUTS"DS. Circuit Judge Cites Possible Remedies to Assure More Speedy Justice. "The right of appeal should be restricted to good and sufficient grounds ?not open to every loophole and subterfuge that is resorted to today to delay justice," Judge S. W. G. Shipp, of the twelth judicial circuit, said when asked what remedies he had in mind recently "\^hen he charged a i grand jury in the court of general sessions that the public is to blame ! for the long delay justice in criminal cases in South Carolina and has the remedy in its hands. "I would not limit the right of a man's appeal but that right should be restricted to prima facie evidence that the appeal is being taken on gooa ana prupei grounds and is not merely a resort to delay justice. "Right of appeal is purely statutory and therefore can be changed at will by the people or their legislators. In my judgment, such changes should be made as will expedite the adminis< tration of justice in South Carolina. These changes should enable the courts to reject, summarily, any appeal which is evidently a move to delay the sentence of justice. "South Carolina formerly had a rule which required that an attorney had to get permission of the supreme court to carry his case before that body. This rule was nullified under a decision of that court in a famous case. Virginia has restricted the right of appeal to bona fide evidence , of sufficient grounds. "In the federal courts, if an attorney would appeal, he must get the permission of the circuit judge?the court official before whom the case was tried. If he refuses, that ends the matter. I am not in favor of this responsibility being placed on the trial judge in the state courts, but I do favor a plan which would operate to the same end in the state courts. "Another law which the general assembly, in my judgment should change is that requiring a prisoner must be brought back from the state penitentiary for sentencing in the court for trial. Once a man has been sentenced to execution, and has been taken from that county to the state penitentiary, the supreme court should be delegated the authority to name a date for execution. He should not be brought back to the county for resentencing. Or let any circuit judge then sitting in session, fix a date without having the prisoner brought again from the penitent ary into the court." o Sue For $120,000,000.
