At Law. On motion to suppress depositions.
1Opinion of the Court
BAKER, District Judge.
The plaintiff has moved the court to suppress the depositions of some 30 witnesses of the defendants on the ground that each witness lives within 100 miles of the place of trial. It is shown in support of the motion that each witness lives within less than 100 miles of the place of trial, measured by a direct line. It is shown in opposition thereto, and it was conceded on the hearing of the motion, that each of said witnesses, by the ordinary, usual, and shortest route of public travel, lives at least 140 miles from the place of trial.
