Kennedy, Washington Win Together in Court

Two Gableites who decided to bring a long standing noise complaint to a head really got results in Municipal Court last week. The case brought out Metro Commission Chairman Robert M. Haverfield, who served as counsel for the defendants, Kenneth C. Kennedy, of 1751 NW 48th Pl., and Willie Robert Washington, 1920 NW 55th Ter. Bill Nurnberg, 240 Santander Ave., and Leon M. Newman, 244 Santander, were among a group of residents living near Food Fair's Ponce de Leon Boulevard store objecting to noises created by early morning deliveries. Kennedy and Washington were unfortunate enough to be the ones Newman and Nurnberg decided to make a case of. Judge Charles Spooner found both defendants not guilty, but Haverfield assured the judge that morning noises will be eliminated in the future.
