Motion to Reconsider Stipulation John A. Gustafson v. State of Oklahoma, Attorney General Civil Case No. 1062

              IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF OKLAHOMA.

 John A. Gustafson,
 Plaintiff in Error,
 vs.
 The State of Oklahoma,
 Defendant in Error.
 No. _____

 MOTION TO RECONSIDER STIPULATION TO ADVANCE.

 Comes now that plaintiff in error, and moves the Court to reconsider  the Stipulation to Advance the above entitled cause, and in support of  said motion, states:
 (1) Said plaintiff in error was convicted of gross neglect of duty in  office in connection with the recent race riot in Tulsa, and for  conspiracy to aid automobile thieves. There was no evidence to warrant  a conviction of gross neglect of duty on either count, and the said  plaintiff in error did not have a fair trial in the court below.
 (2) The said plaintiff in error was Chief of Police of the City of Tulsa,  and the term of office to which he was appointed will expire in May next,  and unless this cause is advanced, the appeal will avail him nothing, and  the City of Tulsa will be without his services for the remainder of his  term of office, to which it is entitled if his conviction was  wrongfully obtained.
 (3) The public are interested in the advancement of this cause, as well  as the plaintiff in error, and for that reason the same should be advanced.
