Gables Wins Final Round In Giblin Case

The Florida District Court of Appeals Monday reversed a lower court's decision awarding Mrs. Vincent C. Giblin $34,000 damages in the famous traffic case involving her husband, the former Circuit Court judge. "The Giblin case appears to be at an end," City Attorney Ted Semple told the City Commission Tuesday. 26 Months Semple has been battling with Giblin's attorneys for 26 months since the Jan. 23, 1959, incident. A steady stream of litigation has been filed since the arrest of Mrs. Giblin for speeding and her husband for disobeying and obstructing a police officer. The case stemmed from Giblin taking the wheel and driving off while his wife was being issued a ticket by Seymour Anderson, a former Coral Gables policeman. Anderson gave chase and threatened to shoot out the judges' tires before the car was halted on the Miami side of the city limits. Giblins Booked The Giblins were brought to the Gables police station and booked in a detention room. Mrs. Giblin's civil suit followed and Judge Giblin litigated to keep from appearing in Municipal Court. A Circuit Court jury later awarded Mrs. Giblin $34,000 damages after Circuit Judge Robert H. Anderson directed a verdict in her favor and instructed them to set damages. Semple said Tuesday that the court costs of approximately $1000 would have to be borne by the Giblins. He said he doubted that the Florida Supreme Court would hear the case if appealed. At one point in the long case, the Giblins reportedly offered to give the $34,000 to the University of Miami if the city would pay. But the City Commission elected to fight the award.
