A suit of John G. White and C. G. Locke against Edward Mollenhauer and Julius Schuberth is before the Common Pleas Court; the judge is Garbozo. The action is for damages of $10,000 due to Mollenhauer using the name of the institute “National Musical Conservatory,” which is owned by the plaintiffs, while he and several teachers were instructing students, who followed them, in a different location. The court decided to order a restraint for using the conservatory’s name for the sued. Mollenhauer claimed that the plaintiffs had attempted to remove him from his directorship. Moreover he claimed, the students followed their instructors voluntarily without their instructor’s request or even suggestion to do so. He appealed the court’s decision. Probably the trial will continue next week.
