STATE BANK eUILDING
ORLANDO, FLORIDA
March 5th, 1929.
Mr. B. A. Minor, Mayor,
Ocoee, Florida.
Dear Sir:
In Re; State vs. Hovey.
In the above matter, you will recall that
you requested that I assist the State in the prose-
cution of cases against Hovey. You may also know
that informations are being filed against Hovey for
trial at the present term of court, which begins
March 11th. The cases will be set for a later date,
but the term of court begins March 11th.
I have stated that I would be willing to
engage in the trial of these cases in the Court of
Record for a comparatively nominal fee in order to
lend assistance to the City of Ocoee. Ordinarily
we' do not engage in the trial of cases in the Crimi-
nal Court of Record for less than $500.00, and quite
frequently we are paid much more. I am, however,
willing to assist in the trial of the Hovey cases
for $250.00 per case. There was no fixed fee men-
tioned in the conversation with you, and to tell you
the honest truth, I feel that I am undertaking a
very haza~~~~\propos1tion from the standpoint of
property~~around Ocoee in engaging in this
service at all, but I feel that the demand for some
very drastic effort is so urgent that I should help
if consistently possible, and by reason of that fact,
I am willing to take the cases at a reduced price.
'-'1. .
Mr. W. M. Murphy, County Solicitor, 9alf~d
me, this morning, to be definitely advised. There_
fore, will you kindly submit this information to the
Council and let me hear from you at the earliest,pos-
sible time, and I would appreciate it if in s~ doing
you would forward check to cover all or a substant~al
part of the fee. '
